THE PREDICTION

Brentford were edged out of the Carabao Cup at the quarter-final stage, beaten 0-1 by Chelsea and they’ll be looking to go even further even the FA Cup. The Bees begin their competition in the third round away at Port Vale, who sit among the play-off places in League Two. In Brentford, Vale are unlikely to face an opponent who will see this competition as an inconvenience and having already comfortably overcome League Two opposition twice in the Carabao Cup including runaway table toppers Forest Green, this impressive Brentford squad should prove far too strong going forward for the hosts, so back an away win by at least two clear goals.
