Crystal Palace will start their 2024/25 Premier League season with three London derbies against Brentford.
Judging from the team lineup, Brentford has shown good strength in the Premier League in recent years. With a stable lineup and efficient tactical system, they have gradually established a foothold in the Premier League. The team has many fast and technical forwards on the offensive end, which can create many offensive opportunities. At the same time, the defensive organization in the midfield and backcourt is also relatively tight, which can effectively limit the opponent’s offense. In contrast, although Crystal Palace is also a veteran team in the Premier League, it has experienced ups and downs in performance in recent years, and lineup changes and injuries have occurred from time to time, which may affect their overall performance.
In terms of tactical style, Brentford focuses on passing and quick counterattacks. They are good at tearing open the opponent’s defense line through precise passes and running positions. Crystal Palace pays more attention to physical confrontation and the use of set pieces. They will adopt a more conservative tactic on the defensive end, trying to find opportunities for counterattacks through solid defense. This difference in style may cause collisions in the game. How to better adapt to and deal with the opponent’s tactics will be a key issue for the two teams to consider.
In terms of historical confrontation records, although the two teams have not played against each other too many times in the Premier League, from previous games, Brentford often has a certain advantage when facing Crystal Palace. This may be related to Brentford’s better adaptation to the tactical trend of modern football, while Crystal Palace may need to further improve in some aspects.
In addition, we also need to take into account the competitive state at the beginning of the season. Since each team needs to adjust the lineup and tactics at the beginning of the season, it is difficult to accurately predict the specific results of each game. However, judging from the performance of the two teams in recent seasons, Brentford’s state at the beginning of the season is often relatively stable and can quickly enter the game state. Crystal Palace may need more time to adapt to the new season and new challenges.
In the 2024/25 season, Brentford vs. Crystal Palace, OneBet tends to believe that Brentford will have a certain advantage. Their stable lineup, efficient tactical system and good competitive state will all be key factors in their victory. Of course, football games are full of variables, and any prediction can only be used as a reference. We also need to pay attention to the actual performance and tactical adjustments of both sides in the game in order to more accurately judge the results of the game.
