STAR FOOTBALL PREVIEW Thurs: Brentford v Arsenal

It’s an all-London affair in the Premier League on Thursday night as Keith Andrews’ impressive Brentford take on Mikel Arteta’s title-chasing Arsenal, writes JOE CITRONE.

The Bees rose to 7th in the Premier League after their entertaining 3-2 win over Newcastle United in their most recent outing, with Dango Ouattara scoring the winning goal in the 85th-minute.

That’s led to questions about whether, despite being tipped for relegation by many in pre-season, Andrews can lead Brentford into a historic European campaign.

Arsenal will be looking to restore their six-point lead over Manchester City in the race for the Premier League title when they visit West London on Thursday night.

In their last Premier League clash, they impressively eased past Sunderland at the Stadium of Light, a result which keeps them firmly in the driving seat for their first Premier League title since 2004.

Arsenal are odds-on favourites for victory here, but with how strong Brentford have been in recent weeks, I do fancy them to possibly nick a draw here, and 14/5 with starsports.bet is an appealing price.
