How both teams go into Brentford vs Leicester
Although they’ve struggled away from home, Brentford have been formidable at the Gtech Community Stadium this season. The Bees are unbeaten in eight at home across all competitions this campaign and if the Premier League were to be judged purely on home games, they would be top of the league with 16 points from six matches. Thomas Frank’s side beat Bournemouth 3-2 in their final match before the international break before drawing 0-0 with Everton.
By contrast, Leicester have struggled on the road with just one win and five points from six away matches. The Foxes are enduring a five-match winless run at present, which was extended when they lost 2-1 to Chelsea last weekend.
