Gameweek 19 of the Premier League 2023-24 season is set to be underway

Brentford will play their first match of the Christmas period on Wednesday following the postponement of their clash against Man City on December 23. The Bees will have a point to prove this week after they come into this showdown with Wolves after losing their last three, and four of their previous five in the Premier League.

The visitors are also looking to get back on track on the road after losing at the London Stadium against West Ham last Sunday. That defeat was one of their poorest displays of the campaign, but a victory against Brentford on Wednesday could see them move up in the table.

Players to Watch

Keane Lewis-Potter (Brentford)

The primary aspect of Lewis-Potter’s game that makes him such an alluring talent is his ability to strike the ball virtually anywhere around the box and perplex the goalkeeper. However, his goalscoring capability goes further than his movement. Lewis-Potter utilises his dribbling skill to produce shots and goals for himself. He’ll usually receive the ball in space or out wide and construct a snappy, sharp carry to cut into space and shoot. He will be a big threat for opposition.

Matheus Cunha (Wolves)

When the ball is on the ground, Cunha finds much more success in keeping possession long enough to involve his teammates and spark counter-attacks. His neat first-touch combines nicely with his ability to spin his opponents, shifting his body weight quickly from side to side, and often a quick burst of acceleration is enough to get away from his marker. He is willing to chase defenders well beyond his station to win the ball back, and with his size, he is able to rough up opponents and win the ball back often, with the occasional foul as a side effect.
