Surprised to read that these guys haven't won any of their home games so far this season, they were excellent at home last year.

Got a feeling we're gonna lose this one but I am really hoping I am wrong.
 


If we sit back and wait for something to happen like last week, we will lose 1 nil again just like last week

We need to show some urgency and some willingness to get men forward. It is not good enough to allow the opposition the freedom of the pitch and to sit off them. We are playing a good team but they are not exactly Man City, or Bayern Munich etc, so don't show them too much respect.
Bournemouth and Palace drew there so why can’t we at least do the same, but of course we have got to have some attacking plan and after last week Sean Dyche can’t play ultra defensive again.

Just go for it. DCL and Big Beto up top. 4-4-2 on paper but in reality it's 6-2-2 because we'll bypass the midfield and just go long with Dwight and Danjuma supporting in wide areas. Sounds barmy but makes sense in my non-UEFA badged head. UTFT. Expecting points
 
Feeling Nostradamusie so..............
But first.... We are away from home under a 'defense first' manager in another must-not-lose match and some are calling for a change to 2 up-front. I could see it happening against Luton next week maybe but surely not this one. Also Onana/Guye is not a midfield 2 that can hold a 3 at bay.

Pickford
Patterson - Tarkowski - Branthwaite - Mykolenko
Gana
Garner - Onana - McNeil
Doucoure
Beto

Danjuma subs in for McNeil as he tires and DCL on for Beto later. Young coming in for Patterson's inevitable hamstring.

Final Score: Brentford 1 (Mbuemo) - Everton 1 (Beto)
