Brentford claimed a 4-2 win at home against Newcastle last season, and with the Magpies playing European football in midweek, we're backing the Bees to take advantage of their guests' busy schedule when the pair go head-to-head on Sunday.
The hosts head into this weekend's clash on the back of four wins from their last six matches across all competitions, and have only lost once at home in the Premier League so far this season against Manchester City. Both teams have scored in six of the Bee's last 10 fixtures in league and cup, so we're not expecting any clean sheets on Sunday.
Newcastle arrive in the capital in just as good a form as their hosts, but each of their last two defeats have arrived away from home in the Premier League. Over 2.5 goals have been scored in four of the Magpies' last six fixtures, and the visitors have scored at least one goal in each of their last 10 matches.
We're predicting a close game and have Brentford down to edge this encounter by two goals to one.
Brentford 2-1 Newcastle
