Chelsea vs Brentford prediction, betting tips and odds: Blues to extend winning streak at Stamford Bridge

When to bet

Chelsea vs Brentford will kick off at 7pm on Sunday

Chelsea vs Brentford predictions

Chelsea should have no issues extending their winning run to seven matches when they host Brentford in the Premier League on Sunday.

The Blues' 3-1 win over Astana in the Conference League was further proof that manager Enzo Maresca is getting a tune out of his players after a bumpy start.

Chelsea are unbeaten in nine outings in all competitions and seven in the Premier League and they have been racking up the goals domestically.

Maresca's men have scored at least three goals in four consecutive games and they face a Brentford side who have kept only one clean sheet in the league all season.

The Bees should get some joy of their own in front of goal, having scored in 13 of their 15 league games, but they have yet to win away from home this season. 

They have taken just one point from a possible 21 on the road and they could be up against it from the opening whistle.

Chelsea vs Brentford team news

Chelsea: Enzo Maresca rested his first team against Astana, so their senior players will be fresh and ready to go. Winger Pedro Neto is suspended, while Reece James, Wesley Fofana and Omari Kellyman remain in the treatment room.
Brentford: Vitaly Janelt and Kristoffer Ajer are available, but Mathias Jensen (hamstring), Gustavo Nunes (back), Rico Henry (knee), Aaron Hickey (hamstring) and Josh Dasilva (knee) have been ruled out.
