Bournemouth vs Brentford Match Preview and Team News
Bournemouth
A really poor end to the season could be costly for Bournemouth, who ended up finishing 6th in the Championship table and now have to face the favorites to come through the playoffs in the semi-finals. There is still a lot of experience in the Bournemouth squad, but Jonathan Woodgate has to hope the last few days have given him a chance to work with his players to restore some of the lost confidence. Fellow relegated clubs from last season, Norwich City and Watford, have done that, but Bournemouth will need a good start in this semi-final. The Cherries have a 13-3-7 record at the Vitality Stadium this season and have to earn an advantage to take to West London in the Second Leg. David Brooks is a guy who makes a lot of trouble for the opponent on the left flank. He has speed and an excellent one-on-one game. Arnaut Danjuma enjoys the pitch, and when he receives the ball and goes towards the goal, the opponent has problems. He is strong, and it is challenging to keep this guy.
Brentford
In the last few days, it has been confirmed that Fulham has been relegated from the Premier League, having beaten Brentford in the playoffs Final last season. At the time, there would have been a real disappointment in the Brentford camp, but the squad might have learned a valuable lesson over the last ten months, and it may prepare them better than it did Fulham for Premier League Football. Experience in the playoffs will also help Brentford, but Thomas Franks is under pressure to deliver top-flight football to a club with a brand new stadium to sell out going forward. They did finish 3rd in the Championship table, and only Norwich City won more away games than Brentford, who finished the season with a 12-6-5 record on their travels. Jordan Thompson has excellent ball control, he can play in several positions, and every team needs such a player. Jacob Brown is the engine of this team, his greatest virtue is speed, he has excellent ball control, and he can be satisfied with his performance.
