Brentford vs Leicester City: Premier League Match Preview and Livestream Details
Brentford is set to host Leicester City in a Premier League match on Saturday, November 30, at the Gtech Community Stadium. The match kicks off at 3 p.m. GMT, which translates to 10 a.m. ET and 7 a.m. PT in the United States, and 2 a.m. AEDT on Sunday in Australia.
Brentford has been in impressive form at home this season, collecting 16 points from six matches at the Gtech Community Stadium. This includes a recent 3-2 win over Bournemouth, thanks in part to Yoane Wissa‘s brace. The Bees also managed a goalless draw away at Everton last weekend, despite having Christian Nørgaard incorrectly sent off, a decision that has since been rescinded.
Leicester City, on the other hand, has been through significant changes. The club sacked manager Steve Cooper after just 157 days and 15 matches in charge, following a 2-1 defeat to Chelsea. Cooper’s style of play was reportedly a major factor in his dismissal, despite the team being just outside the relegation zone. Ruud van Nistelrooy is poised to take over as the new manager, but he will not be in the dugout for this match. Interim boss Ben Dawson will lead the team against Brentford.
Historically, Leicester City has a strong record against Brentford, remaining unbeaten in their last seven visits and winning six of those matches. However, given Brentford’s current home form and Leicester’s recent struggles, it is predicted that Brentford will secure a victory. The predicted lineup for Brentford includes players like Bryan Mbeumo, who has scored seven of his eight goals this season at home, and Igor Thiago, who made his debut last weekend after a long injury layoff.
For Leicester City, Jamie Vardy will continue to lead the line despite an ongoing back issue. The team will likely adopt a defensive strategy to try and frustrate Brentford, but they must avoid the passive play that characterized their loss to Chelsea.
The match will be available to stream on various platforms depending on the region. In the United States, fans can watch the match on Peacock with a Premium or Premium Plus subscription. In Canada, the match will be streamed on Fubo Canada, and in Australia, it will be available on Optus Sport. Due to the traditional Saturday 3 p.m. kickoff blackout in the UK, the match will not be broadcast live in the UK, but viewers can use a VPN to access the stream from other regions.
