Brentford v Everton betting tips: Early promise has faded

Brentford ended a run of four straight defeats last weekend but had to settle for a point in a thrilling 3-3 draw despite twice taking the lead.

Backing both teams to score has paid out in six of their last seven matches and that is an option for Saturday at 20/23.

Brentford v Everton head-to-head

This is the first meeting between these teams since a League Cup tie in 2010 when they shared a 1-1 draw at Griffin Park before the Bees caused an upset by winning a penalty shoot-out 4-3.

The first goalscorer that night was a young Seamus Coleman and the full-back is 40/1 to repeat the trick this weekend!

Brentford v Everton key battles

Brentford have shown little fear in their first season in the Premier League with wins against Arsenal, Wolves and West Ham but now seek a first home victory since the opening weekend.

Striker Ivan Toney (pictured above) has maybe not had quite the impact Brentford had hoped after his goal-scoring exploits in the Championship.

Scoring his third goal of the season at Newcastle will have boosted his confidence, though, and he is the 4/1 favourite to open the scoring or 15/8 in the anytime scorer odds.

Salomon Rondon may lead the line for the Toffees in the absence of Richarlison.

He is yet to get off the mark in nine appearances since arriving as a free agent in the summer but is 23/10 to break his duck in Brentford v Everton betting tips.
