Our predictions for Wolves vs Brentford
Match Prediction: Wolves 1-2 Brentford
Wolves are coming into this match on the back of a tough run of form, having lost their last five games. This could impact their confidence, but playing at home might give them a slight boost. They'll need to be more solid at the back and more clinical in attack if they're to turn their fortunes around against Brentford.
Brentford, on the other hand, have had a mixed bag of results recently, with a win, a draw, and three losses in their last five games. They'll be looking to exploit Wolves' defensive frailties, but they'll need to be wary of Wolves' potential to counter-attack. This match could be closely contested, with both teams eager to secure a much-needed victory.
Wolves have been struggling lately, losing their last five matches. This poor run of form could affect their confidence going into the game against Brentford. They'll need to find a way to break this losing streak and regain some momentum if they're to have any chance of a positive result.

Head-to-Head Record
The head-to-head record between Wolves and Brentford has been closely contested recently. In their last five meetings, there have been two wins for each club plus a 1-1 draw. It was the most recent encounter that ended in that 1-1 draw, suggesting that these teams are evenly matched and that this upcoming game could be another tight affair.
Wolves are expected to line up in a 3-5-2 formation, with Johnstone in goal and a back three of Tchatchoua, Agbadou, and Toti. This setup should allow them to be solid defensively while also providing width through Doherty and flexibility in midfield with players like Andre and Krejci.
Brentford are likely to deploy a 4-2-3-1 formation, with Kelleher between the posts and a back four of Kayode, Collins, van den Berg, and Hickey. This formation should give them a strong defensive base while allowing players like Damsgaard, Jensen, and Lewis-Potter to support Thiago up front.
Key Battles & Players to Watch
Jorgen Strand Larsen vs Nathan Collins: Larsen's pace and movement will be a test for Collins' defensive positioning.
Ladislav Krejci vs Jordan Henderson: Krejci's control in midfield will be crucial against Henderson's creativity.
Matt Doherty (Wolves): Doherty's experience and ability to get forward could be key for Wolves' attacking threat.
Vitaly Janelt (Brentford): Janelt's energy and work rate in midfield will be vital for Brentford's performance.
