Last fixture at the bet365 Stadium v Brentford
The last time Brentford visited the bet365 Stadium was during lockdown. Brentford needed the win to keep their hope of automatic promotion within their own hands. Stoke took a first half lead through Lee Gregory. The second half was one way traffic as Brentford attacked in number trying to get back into the game. Fortunately for Stoke, Davies & resolute defending by Batth, Chester & BMI meant Stoke held on to the 1-0 result.

What do you expect the outcome to be versus Brentford?
Sky Sports Pundit David Prutton airs his views on the outcome of tonight’s game versus Watford.
Prutton has been known to back against Stoke more often than not, but has started to take a shine to the Potters
“It’s five without a win for Stoke, now. They have just started to drift away from the battle for the top six a little and need to start picking up victories again soon. Goals had been a problem until their midweek game, but even then they could only manage to draw 3-3 with Rotherham!
If Watford could sort out their form on the road, where they have picked up just two wins all season, they would be right up there with Norwich. Right now it looks like their battling with a few others for second place. Taking everything into consideration, I think this will be a draw”
Stoke 1-1 Watford
