Crystal Palace vs Brentford Analysis and Prediction

Crystal Palace (#18, 0PTS) vs Brentford (#6, 3PTS)

Pintsized

After a justifiable opening day defeat to Chelsea, Vieira will face far greater criticism if he cannot muster some form of offence against Premiership new boys, Brentford. Sure, the B’s shocked Arsenal on opening day – but the Gunners are a mess as of right now. A young Palace team may well come good nearing the end of the season, but it needs to hit the ground relatively soon to put to rest creeping doubts.

Prediction: 1-1

Welcome to Premiership management, Patrick Vieira. Admittedly first tests don’t come much tougher than the European champions on a high. And welcome to Premiership life, Brentford. Fair play to them, they made mincemeat of an Arsenal looking to get back into Europe. I see Vieira’s bad start continue against a fresh Bees side continuing their dream in the top flight.

Prediction: 0-1

Steviano

Hmm difficult one for me to call with Brentford making a great start against the Gunners whilst Palace were predictably beaten by Chelsea.  I will take a punt on this one and go for a Palace home win, it should tell us a lot about Palace’s season to come and Viera’s likely managerial longevity.

Prediction: 1-0
