Match Thread Brentford 2-2 Everton Saturday 11th April 3.00pm

[Preki]

If anyone else is planning to use Gunnersbury station on Saturday there’s no service on the District line further than Embankment , you can use London Overground services from Euston.

London Waterloo to Kew bridge as well.

Got a ticket today so looking forward to it

Beto was awful there last season. Can he play like he did against Chelsea or will Barry get a sniff.

i thought he was good but poor finishing

as the brentford mastermind was saying, it was important he was getting into the space to create the chances

 

[Preki]

Is there a preferred ale house for before the game for blues?

The ones on the other side of the bridge let us in last year. Pretty relaxed about home/away colours etc.

Good luck to the blues who are traveling to Brentford this weekend, a bus stop in hounslow. let's be honest, this club in West London doesn't deserve to be in the premier league.

Brentford FFS. Brentford??

It was once known for its breweries, since knocked down for 'The Bees' and the only reference to real beer is the bunch of nob heads who now live there stroking a goatie whilst supping IPA.

The owner of this team who has won fook all, ever, made it trendy for fans from Philly to follow. The history goes back to 1900 when they won the Southern League Second Division....but not a lot since.

These tramps are utter pretenders and when Igor Thiago, Damsgaard and a few other have been plucked from the club by City and the big 6 bunch of PCR dodging counts (except Spurs who have well and truly left that group) will struggle to keep up with Coventry next season.

Come on blues, let's see more of what we saw against Chelsea and ram some Jellied Eels down the throats of these imposters

Jellied eels? In Brentford? As a Londoner myself I really think you should brush up on your geography and also show a little respect for clubs who, although maybe over-achieving, are still achieving. Posts like this are guaranteed to come back to haunt us.

 

[TyphooToffee]

Unlike the home game, we'll have Illi, Gana, Jarrad and KDH playing. Away win for sure.

I'm predicting Brentford 1-2 Everton

It's a mere 51 since my first match

Coincidentally it's 63 years since 1963, when I became a ten year old Evertonian (a was a late bloomer)

Brentfords remaining fixtures are:

Everton (h)
Fulham (h)
Man Utd (a)
West Ham (h)
Man City (a)
Crystal Palace (h)
Liverpool (a)

I believe our run in is much more favourable than this so even if we draw, we hopefully still finish above them. But its the push for places if we win that we really want to see. Really pressurise Chelsea and Liverpool for that 5th spot that now guarantees CL footy next season.

If you believe that type of thing. The prem league website has Brentford as the hardest run in for teams chasing Euro place

As I previously stated, it'll be a disgrace if we don't finish above them.

And I wasn't even aware of their nightmare set of fixtures at that point.

Let's hope we set the wheels in motion for their downfall with a victory tomorrow.

I know you did but the word disgrace implies an entitlement not usually reserved for us, if you know what I mean. They are a very well run club who have pushed forward over the past 5 seasons. We should be looking to finish above them and will have done well to as they have had an excellent season.

The sporting life thinks we win.....​

Brentford vs Everton​

• Kick-off: Saturday, 15:00 BST
• Live odds, form and stats

Who would have thought that heading into gameweek 32 that a meeting between Brentford and Everton would have such big implications on European qualification? Well, it does.

The Bees sit seventh on 46 points, with that position likely to be enough for Europa League qualification, and Everton in eighth on the same number of points with that position expected to be Conference League qualification. Both sides are just two points behind sixth-placed Chelsea and three off the final Champions League spot held by a faltering Liverpool.

So, there really is plenty to play for on Saturday but I am not expecting this to be a barnstormer. Everton's away games have averaged just 2.1 goals, with 11 of 15 going UNDER 2.5 GOALS and that's the selection here.

The Toffees have been tough to beat and tough to score against all season on their travels, shipping just 16 goals in 15, but their pragmatic approach means they struggle going the other way.

Brentford's home games last season were mental for goals, averaging 3.9 per game under Thomas Frank, but this season that average is down to 2.9 with only eight of 15 seeing three or more goals scored.

Score prediction: Brentford 0-1 Everton

I think he’ll play Branthwaite at left back, they are giants and love a long throw.

 

[Evermaarton]

A win would put us in a great position. Brentford outplayed us at HD though. They were all over us. We did have some players out for that match, which could make a difference. Let's hope our away-form continues and we can get a good result.

 

[Benicetoourboys]

They we're 'clever' (I mean cheats) at HD, we owe them a good hiding.
