A London derby kicks off the action in the Premier League on Sunday, as Brentford bid to start their season with a victory against one of the eye-catching teams from the second half of last season in the form of Crystal Palace.

Brentford kick off their 2023-24 season in front of their home fans this weekend, as they collide with Crystal Palace at the Gtech Community Stadium. Last term was a struggle for the Bees, as they secured their top-flight status in the final weeks of the season. Their biggest issues came in front of goal, which was highlighted by the fact that top-scorer Yoane Wissa netted just 12 goals in the league.

Thomas Frank will be hoping for much better this term, as the side will be looking to finish closer toward the middle of the standings. However, their chances of achieving that goal could hinge on the security of Ivan Toney, who has been linked with a move away from the club.

Crystal Palace were one of the stories of the second half of the season last term, as Oliver Glasner transformed their fortunes to achieve a joint-best finish in the competition. Such was their success that Palace were the most represented club in the England squad at the EUROs earlier this summer.

Glasner will have his sights set on a top-half finish this term, but they will likely start the campaign without last season’s top scorer, Jean-Philippe Mateta, who played for France during the Olympics. However, the Eagles showed excellent quality in the final third throughout pre-season, netting 13 goals in their four final friendlies.

Brentford vs Crystal Palace Parlay Picks

Palace are unbeaten in their last six Premier League matches against the Bees, but five of those clashes have ended in draws. Therefore, that could be a prominent angle this weekend. Meanwhile, under 2.5 goals has been a winning selection in five of the last six.

Eberechi Eze could be a standout selection when making props selections this weekend, with the 26-year-old having 15 goal involvements in 27 Premier League outings last term.
