Brentford are winning all the plaudits and affections of neutrals across the nation in 2021/22 with a series of excellent performances and results in their return to the top flight.

The Bees have looked more than capable in their eight matches so far and have been rewarded with a cosy perch in ninth place.

Thomas Frank’s men were unlucky not to take anything from their clash with table-toppers Chelsea last time out after firing in 17 shots on the Blues’ goal. Unfortunately they found Edouard Mendy in fine fettle between the sticks.

They face Leicester on Sunday with the Foxes buoyant following a 4-2 win over Manchester United last weekend and 4-3 victory over Spartak Moscow on Wednesday.

Patson Daka found the net against United before striking four goals in the Europa League to signal his growing influence on the team.

Our prediction: Brentford v Leicester

It speaks volumes about Brentford’s campaign so far that it’s a ‘bold’ move to tip them to lose.

They could very feasibly come out with maximum points in this one, but Leicester are shifting into gear, and once that happens, they may be very tricky to slow down.

Jamies Vardy has scored five in five. Daka has scored five in two. Kelechi Iheanacho has scored two and picked up four assists in five. Talk about firepower.

Our prediction: Brentford 1-2 Leicester (10/1 at bet365).
