Bournemouth will entertain Brentford at the Vitality Stadium in Premier League action on Saturday. This will be the first-ever Premier League encounter between the two sides and they will be looking to secure a win here.
The home team are undefeated in their last three league outings and held Newcastle United to a 1-1 draw last time around. Brentford fell to a 3-0 defeat against London rivals Arsenal in their previous league game, which brought an end to their three-game unbeaten run.
Brentford are in ninth place in the standings with nine points to their name while the home team trail the visitors by a point but are in 12th place. A win might help the hosts claim a place in the upper half of the table.

Bournemouth vs Brentford Prediction
The Cherries are undefeated since Gary O'Neil took charge and are not expected to suffer a defeat at home. They have failed to score in their last two home games, so the odds of a prolific outing from them are low.
Brentford are winless in their away games and, given their record in their recent trips to southern England, a low-scoring draw might ensue here.
