Keeping with the theme of big things in sports, we have an article on the Brentford-Chelsea affair, and now, we take a gander at the statistics in the hopes of knowing what may unfold.
Goals, Goals, Goals: Death Came on the Field for Brentford
First sight: Goals! Goals win matches, no? Brentford have been scoring a lot lately, unlike Chelsea, a team that does indeed have some illustrious goal scorers who just end up scoring at the other end of the pitch. The home crowd roars for Brentford for all these goals, which just showcase how potent the other side of attack is; let Chelsea be forewarned!
Chelsea’s Defense: Keeping the Ball Out
Now, let’s look at Chelsea the other way. They have great defenders who block shots and get the ball away from their goal. Would Brentford not have that great a chance to win if Chelsea manages to keep the score sheet blank for them? One would say how many goals Chelsea concedes is something worth looking into.
Passing: How Brentford and Chelsea Move the Ball
The more successfully teams pass, the more likely they are to retain possession and work on creating opportunities in the process. Chelsea truly does play in a passing manner, but Brentford seems to have developed its own style of passing as well.
Recent Games: How Have Brentford and Chelsea Been Performing?
Lastly, what is their record of late? Winning, losing, or drawing? That will help assess if both teams are confident and in good form. If Brentford were having good form, then there is little wonder in doubting them, right? The same with Chelsea.
Authors Opinion
Numbers-wise, then, Brentford shows a very capable forward line, having scored a large number of goals at home. Chelsea appears to have defended quite well, although being somewhat mediocre in doing so and indulging themselves a little too much with possession and passing. This will be a bright match! Expect goals, interesting possession, and how each team fares on
