Brentford make the trip to the Emirates Stadium to face Arsenal this afternoon in confident mood after their impressive recent run of form. They are unbeaten in their last nine league outings and haven’t lost since their return from the World Cup break.
Thomas Frank’s side are dreaming of European football and are currently 7th in the Premier League. Their opponents find themselves top of the table and they are five points ahead of Manchester City in second place.
Brentford will be looking to get the better of them though and here is a look at how the visitors could line up...
