In my opinion, the central game of the 5th round of the English Premier League will be the Brentford — Chelsea clash, which will take place at the Gtech Community Stadium.
Brentford remain unbeaten after four opening league matches, with 1 win over Tottenham Hotspur and 3 draws. Thanks to these decent results and their six points, Brentford have secured seventh place in the Premier League table.
After picking up two wins at the start of the season, Chelsea have struggled a little after facing strong opponents in Arsenal and Hull City. Last week, the London club hosted Hull City and, despite having a clear advantage in terms of initiative and possession, they managed to earn only 1 point, which did not come easily. The visitors created an equal number of dangerous chances and led 1:2 during the match, but fortunately for Chelsea, João Pedro managed to equalise with an accurate shot.

Prediction for the Brentford vs Chelsea
I consider this the most competitive match of the 5th round of the Premier League, as both teams are worthy opponents. Chelsea are of course a stronger side, but Brentford can compensate for that with the enthusiasm of playing in front of their home fans. It is difficult for me to pick a winner in this fixture, but I am sure the match will produce goals, so my pick is over 2.5 goals.
