Deciding factors

Which factors will settle this match?

Home advantage, expected goals and the factor carrying the most weight here.

  1. Home advantage

    Brentford are both the stronger team and at home, which the model values at a little over a fifth of a goal. The two edges stack.

    Edge: Brentford

  2. Expected goals

    With 2.6 expected goals, the 2.5 line is near 50/50 (49% for the over).

    Edge: Even

  3. Draw risk

    A 27% draw chance is high by Premier League standards, which is why our anchor bet protects against the draw instead of backing a straight win.

    Edge: Draw

Team shape

How will the two teams set up?

Official line-ups are announced roughly an hour before kick-off.

At home

Brentford

Brentford are a pragmatic mid-table team: sturdy out of possession at Gtech Community Stadium, but short of the creativity to dictate a game.

Away

AFC Bournemouth

Bournemouth are a pragmatic mid-table team: sturdy out of possession on the road at Gtech Community Stadium, but short of the creativity to dictate a game.

What could change

What would change the King Exchange prediction?

Team news and match events that would move our numbers.

  1. If Brentford field a weakened XI

    Rotation or a missing key player would take several points off their win chance. Line-ups drop an hour before kick-off.

  2. If Bournemouth score first

    The favourite must chase, and both the draw and the upset become far more likely.

  3. If a red card arrives in the first hour

    Playing with ten men rewrites the expected-goals picture, whichever team it hits.
