This clash of teams from opposite ends of the Premier League table has a clear favorite, but the visitors are capable of putting up a fight. Brentford sits in 7th place with 44 points and looks confident in attack (44 goals in 29 matches). However, the Bees are inconsistent defensively: a 3-4 defeat to Burnley and a 2-3 defeat to West Ham show that even against underdogs, the hosts aren't always reliable.
Wolverhampton Wanderers are at the bottom of the table with a dismal record (only 16 points), but their performances don't necessarily deserve last place. They are capable of putting up a fight even against the big boys: draws with Arsenal (2-2) and victories over Liverpool (1-2) in recent matches demonstrate their character. In the Premier League, Wolves have lost only one match in their last five matches.
Wolverhampton desperately need points in their fight for survival, and even away to a motivated Brentford, they must avoid a rout. The hosts won 2-0 in the first leg, but now the Wolves will fight to the bitter end. Their chances of survival are slim, but they're not giving up.
