Brentford vs Sunderland Preview


Brentford win a lot of home games and have started the new season in strong form. Sunderland are a patchy side and the Bees can keep winning at home in the Premier League.

  • Brentford have won their last 2 home games.
  • Brentford have won 2 of their last 3 home matches against Sunderland. 
  • Sunderland have lost 4 of their last 8 matches. 

H2H 


Sunderland have a 10-7 advantage against Brentford, alongside four draws

Brentford Are a Top Home Side


Keith Andrews’ Brentford have a strong long-term home record in the Premier League. The west Londoners are undefeated in 17 of their last 20 at the Gtech, winning nine.

The Bees are on a two-match winning streak at home and thrashed Eintracht Frankfurt 7-0 in pre-season. Andrews’ side started the new season with a commanding 3-0 home victory over Tottenham.

Brentford also sealed a big 6-1 EFL Cup first-round win at Birmingham, attempting 18 shots and eight on target.

They were denied a fifth consecutive win in all competitions after a 1-1 draw at Leeds. Kevin Schade scored first and the Bees had 22 shots before Leeds levelled with 10 minutes left. 

Sunderland Lacking Premier League Consistency


Regis Le Bris’ Sunderland are inconsistent in the Premier League and have failed to win in five of their previous eight. They are winless in three of four away games during that period, losing twice.

The Black Cats fell to an opening game defeat in the 2026/27 Premier League season, losing 2-1 at Ipswich. Sunderland were second best, allowing 1.8 XG.

Le Bris’ outfit replied with a late 1-0 home triumph against Fulham on Sunday. Wilson Isidor scored with 15 minutes remaining and Sunderland had 41% possession. 

Predicted Starting Lineups & Team News


Brentford (4-2-3-1): Caoimhin Kelleher; Michael Kayode, Kristoffer Ajer, Nathan Collins, Keane Lewis-Potter; Mamadou Sangare, Vitaly Janelt; Jaidon Anthony, Mikkel Damsgaard, Kevin Schade; Igor Thiago

Centre-back Sepp van den Berg and midfielder Antoni Milambo are out with long-term injuries. 

Mathias Jensen missed the Leeds game and is an injury doubt here. Keith Andrews was unsure about the midfielder’s recovery time and said:

“Yeah, a slight strain in training on Friday. We don't know the full extent of that yet, but that's the reason he's missed out today."

Sunderland (4-2-3-1): Robin Roefs; Thomas Meunier, Nordi Mukiele, Dan Ballard, Reinildo Mandava; Granit Xhaka, Noah Sadiki; Trai Hume, Enzo Le Fee, Nilson Angulo; Brian Brobbey

Habib Diarra came off late in the Fulham game with an injury. Regis Le Bris was positive over the midfielder’s condition post-match and said, “His injury doesn't look too serious at the minute, but we'll see.”

Verdict

Brentford are tough side to play against at home and can beat an inconsistent Sunderland outfit at the Gtech. Stick with a home victory in this Premier League encounter.
