Arsenal
The Gunners continue to lead the Premier League, with their gap to the nearest rival now at 5 points.

Arsenal's unbeaten run in the league now stands at 10 matches, with 7 wins and 3 draws. Arsenal remains the best defensive side in the Premier League, having conceded just 7 goals.

Brentford
Keith Andrews' side has avoided draws in their last nine league matches and has not lost consecutive games during this period (5 wins and 4 losses). In the previous round, the team hosted Burnley and comfortably defeated one of the league's strugglers 3-1. Notably, this was their third consecutive home win, scoring 3 goals in each.

Arsenal vs. Brentford: Match Prediction
Despite the difference in league positions and Arsenal's 11-point advantage, this match is unlikely to be easy for the Gunners. The teams have faced off 8 times in the Premier League, but Arsenal has only twice defeated Brentford by a margin of two or more goals. Brentford has managed to score in 6 of their last meetings with Arsenal. I expect both London clubs to find the net in this derby.
Mikel Arteta's side has failed to score only once in their last 24 league matches. Arsenal has also conceded in their last three Premier League games. Meanwhile, Brentford has been prolific even away from home, scoring in 15 of their last 16 away league matches. Additionally, they have conceded in 6 of their last 7 away league games.
My prediction – Both teams to score – yes
