How both teams go into Bournemouth vs Brentford
As we head towards the March international break, Bournemouth are in a strong position. The Cherries sit just five points outside the top four and have a genuine chance of securing European football for next season. But Bournemouth cannot really afford to drop any points, given how tight things are. And unfortunately they are in a bit of a rut. The Cherries have lost three of their past three league games, only beating relegation-battling Southampton during that time. At home, Bournemouth have lost their past two league games without scoring.
Brentford are on the up, trying to recover from a slow start to the season. But they may have arrived too late to join the European party. Although they sit 12th in the Premier League table, Brentford are still four points behind 10th-placed Fulham so it’s an uphill task. Nonetheless, the Bees are doing what they can and they’re in top form away from home in particular.
