BRE vs LU Dream11, Probable Playing 11 And Match Report: Edge of the seat thriller on our tie as two stalwarts face off against each other in the midst of a closely contested fight for the top spot.
One month was all it took for the 2019-20 edition of the Championship to be blown completely open. From Leeds United and West Brom holding a tearaway lead atop of the points tally to now just 6 points separating first and fifth place, the Championship has truly become anyone’s game at the moment.
And the recent set of events have played out extremely favourably for 5th placed Brentford with a spot in the annuls of the league tally looking extremely likely for them now. They have registered two wins on the bounce, heralding in a 3-2 win over Middlesbrough the last time around to move upto 53 points in the Championship.
And what will buoy them immensely when they take to the middle for today’s fixture is the fact that just two points spate them and second placed Leeds United. Where they have been torching their way up the points tally, Leeds United have shambolically lost proceedings with the 2-0 defeat the last time around seeing them completely unravel to face their fourth defeat in their last ties.
Probable Winner
A month back, this would have been a tie we would have had no qualms in handing over Leeds United’s way. However, things have immensely changed ever since then with Brentford making an advent into this clash as outright favourites, a side who should win this given Leeds United’s vulnerable defence.
