They had to settle for a goalless draw at Leeds last time out but had won their three previous league games including back-to-back home wins against Liverpool (3-1) and Bournemouth (2-0). Brentford have been particularly strong on their own patch, with leaders Arsenal the only team to leave with three points this season and Chelsea the only other away team to manage a clean sheet. Thomas Frank’s men can turn on the style at times and as well as their impressive victory over Liverpool, they thrashed Manchester United 4-0 in August and put five goals past Leeds here in September. Looking at the Brentford vs Southampton odds, a home win and over 3. 5 total goals is tempting at 4/1.
