Brentford, currently positioned in the middle of the Premier League standings, has had a balanced season so far, with an equal number of wins, draws, and losses after twelve matchdays. As the 11th placed team, they are comfortably distanced from the relegation zone but also not too far from the European qualification spots, which is a satisfactory position for the club's management.However, Brentford's recent performance against top-tier clubs like Liverpool, Newcastle, and Manchester Utd has been less encouraging, with losses against these teams. This record suggests that caution might be warranted when considering their upcoming match against Arsenal.Arsenal, currently third in the Premier League, faces a potentially beneficial matchday, with other top-five teams playing against each other. Arsenal's recent form has been generally positive, despite only securing one point in their last two away games against tough opponents Newcastle and Chelsea. Victories in four of their last six matches, including a win over Manchester City, and progress in the Champions League suggest good overall form.For Arteta, the upcoming match against Brentford is significant as it marks his 200th game in charge of Arsenal. With a record of 115 wins, Arteta has proven successful, and there's a realistic expectation that Arsenal could achieve their first away win since late September. Despite needing to make a goalkeeper change due to Raya being unable to play against his parent club on loan, Arsenal's attack, featuring players like Saka, Trossard, and Martinelli, is expected to be strong. Gabriel Jesus's return from injury could also boost their options. Despite Brentford's strong performances in front of home crowd, there is a big value in away here so I will back Arsenal to win this small city derby.

目前在英超排名中游的布伦特福德，本赛季到目前为止表现平衡，在12个比赛日之后，他们取得了相同数量的胜、平、负。作为排名第11位的球队，他们离降级区很近，但离欧洲资格赛的席位也不远，这对俱乐部的管理层来说是一个满意的位置。然而，布伦特福德最近对阵利物浦、纽卡斯尔和曼联等顶级俱乐部的表现就不那么令人鼓舞了，对阵这些球队都输了。这一记录表明，在考虑即将到来的对阵阿森纳的比赛时，谨慎是有必要的。目前在英超排名第三的阿森纳面临着一个潜在的有利比赛日，其他排名前五的球队相互竞争。阿森纳最近的状态总体上是积极的，尽管他们在最近两场客场对阵强敌纽卡斯尔和切尔西的比赛中只拿到了一分。在过去的六场比赛中取得了四场胜利，包括战胜曼城，以及在欧冠联赛中的进步表明他们的整体状态良好。对于阿尔特塔来说，即将到来的对阵布伦特福德的比赛意义重大，因为这是他执教阿森纳的第200场比赛。凭借115胜的战绩，阿尔特塔已经证明了自己的成功，阿森纳有望取得自9月底以来的首个客场胜利。尽管由于拉亚不能在与母队的比赛中上场，阿森纳需要更换门将，但以萨卡、特罗萨德、马蒂内利等球员为主力的阿森纳的进攻预计会很强大。加布里埃尔·热苏斯的伤愈回归也会增加他们的选择。尽管布伦特福德在主场的表现很好，但在客场的价值还是很大的，所以我会支持阿森纳赢得这场小城市德比。
