Brentford were beaten at home by Mikel Arteta's side in the Carabao Cup earlier this season, but have already taken points off Tottenham and Chelsea and given Manchester United a major scare at Old Trafford.

Brentford vs Arsenal prediction
Arsenal have not kept a clean sheet away from home in any competition since September, with Arteta's side far from convincing on the road in recent weeks.
Odegaard and Jesus returning should at least help the Gunners click into gear again in forward areas, but Brentford have shown time and time again that they are capable of producing their best performances against the biggest teams.
Draw, 1-1.
