Brentford Vs Arsenal Preview. Arsenal will face Brentford in the 2021/22 Premier League opener which will take place at the Brentford Community Stadium, Saturday (14/08/2021) at 12:30 midnight Indian time.
Arsenal in the last season out of the position of the Premier League big six. The club nicknamed The Gooners was only able to finish in the eighth position in the standings by collecting 61 points and certainly will not appear in any European competition this season.
This season, Arsenal coach Mikel Arteta has targeted to finish in the top 4 which is the European Champions League zone. To realize this, a number of new players have been brought in by Arsenal this season.
One of Arsenal's best signings this season is Ben White, who joined from Brighton & Hove Albion. Ben White is predicted to be a strong defensive wall for Arteta's troops this season.
Ahead of this match Arsenal are in a bad shape. In 6 preseason games this year, Arsenal was only able to pick 2 wins, namely in a closed match against Watford with a score of 4-1 and against Millwall with a score of 4-1. Meanwhile, in the other 4 matches, Arsenal has always failed to win by winning 1 draw and 3 defeats.
On the other hand, Brentford is a promoted team in the Premier League this season. Brentford was successfully promoted to the Premier League this season after beating Swansea City with a score of 2-0 in the final promotion play-off.
Brentford itself is in good form ahead of this match. Last weekend, Brentford successfully beat Valencia with a score of 2-1 in the test match. The victory made Brentford only swallow 1 defeat in 6 pre-season games this year (W4 D1 L1).
