● Brentford (League 15th / LWDWW)
Basically, they tend to apply a very strong press, which makes them strong at home. Last season, there were significant fluctuations overall, but this was due to many injuries in both attack and defense. Tony has returned from suspension, and it can be said that they are ready to show that they did not lose at home in their first season post-promotion, except against Newcastle and Arsenal. It is quite common for a team that focuses on pressing to be strong at home.
- Absentees: Rodriguez (FW / B grade), Henry (LB / C grade)
● Palace (English 1st Division 10th / DWDW)
Palace has also seen a reduction in fluctuations in attacking power. Especially under the Glasner system, which switched to a three-back formation, counterattacks centered around Mateta and Eze have been quite impressive. However, it is hard to say that Palace is without defensive risks. Glasner does not wholly adopt a defensive and counter-attacking style; instead, Palace tends to play with a higher defensive line and push forward.
- Absentees: Doucouré (DM / A grade), Richards (CB / A grade)
