Brentford vs Leeds United preview: Championship prediction, team news, tickets, live stream, TV channel, H2H, odds

Brentford welcome Leeds United to Griffin Park this evening for what looks a crucial game in the Championship promotion race.

Thomas Frank's side know victory will send them above their visitors, possibly even into an automatic promotion place should results elsewhere go their way.

A desperate run of form has seen Leeds' 11-point cushion inside the top two evaporate, and they could find themselves as low as fifth by the time the full set of midweek fixtures have been played.

Date: Tuesday, February 11, 2020

Venue: Griffin Park

Kick-off time: 7:45pm GMT

Prediction: Brentford 2-0 Leeds United

Leeds have failed to score in five of their last six games in all competitions and come up against a side whose recent home form has been superb.

Tickets

The game is a complete sellout in both the home and away ends.

Team news

Thomas Frank may have Pontus Jansson back after he returned to training this week and will make a late call on whether to include the centre-half against his former side or stick with the pairing of Julian Jeanvier and Ethan Pinnock.

Marcelo Bielsa will have Kalvin Phillips available again after a three-match ban but Tyler Roberts is out with a calf problem, while January signing Jean-Kevin Augustin is in contention as he nears full fitness.
