They look at the underlying ratings which they trust more.Thomas Frank lost eight of his first ten games as Brentford head coach but they didn’t panic.

(3/n)
Matthew Benham an Oxford physics graduate who has spent decades becoming a football scientist. So when he became majority shareholder of his boyhood club in 2012, he already had the perfect model to guide them from the third tier of English football to the edge of the PL.

(4/n)
Ollie Watkins and Said Benrahma are among the most highly-rated players in the Championship. Neither of them cost Brentford more than ÂŁ2m, both are now worth eight figures.Let us look at few tradings made by Brentford in recent past.

Frank’s use of full-backs has often meant that the frontline for Brentford consists of five players. This tactic gives freedom for the inside forwards to cause a menace in the channels and their runs in the box helps Watkins to be able to find space between the two CBs.

(8/n)
While Brentford is weak in transitions due to the height of the defensive line, once settled in the defensive structure of Frank’s tactics, they are very stable and hard to break down.

(9/n)
They won the 24 matches out of 46 which was 2nd best figure in the league.Barring the last 2 group matches in the previous 8 outing Brentford conceded only 2 goals. Including the last 2 play off matches, Brentford had converted 14 headed goals , 6 more than Leeds.

(11/n)
They had 35 counter attacks 5 more than Leeds(30).Whereas the Leeds had 2.7 Big chances per game , Brentford having 1.9 but Brentford had a 17% goal convertion% ratio , 3% more than what Leeds had.

Now lets try find out their best assets at Championship this season.

(12/n)
He had 3 assists on his name & created 8 big chances just behind Dasilva & Benrahma in Brentford.On the other hand the no. of big chances that he had missed is 17. You can take that either way. Below is his hitmap of the season.

(14/n)
Said Benhrahma- Scoring the 2nd most goals in Brentford team, Benrahma is probably the most creative player at championship at the moment who plays to the left of Watkins.. He started 39 out of the 43 matches that he played.

(15/n)
He had the most no. of assists(8) in Brentford team with an impeccable record of 12 big chances creation, 2.1 key passes per game, 2.9 shots per game. Below is his hitmap of the season.

(16/n)
Bryan Mbeumo- Scoring just 2 less goals(15) &1 less assist(7) than Benrahma in the season Mbeumo certainly is somebody whom the Brentford management have a lot of trust on.He plays to the right of Watkins & started 36 out of 42 matches.

(17/n)
Although the underlying stats of Mbuemo suggests that he had only 1.5 shots per game ,lesser than Watkins & Benrahma & Big chances creation is also lesser than the former two. Below is the hitmap of the season.

(18/n)
Josh DaSilva- Playing in midfield in a 4-3-3 formation DaSilva had started 34 out of the 42 matches that he played. He scored 10 goals & 4 assists during the group stage.

(19/n)
He had created the 2nd most no. of Big chances(3 less than Benrahma) in Brentford team while playing 564 minutes less than Benrahma. He had 1.1 shots per game & 2nd best Key passes(1.6) in the team.Below is his heatmap.

(20/n)
Ethan Pinnock- The only defender from Brentford team that I would like to highlight.He started 34 out of the 36 matches that he played.He had 2 goals &4 assists(same as Dasilva & more than Watkins) in the season.He had created the same no. of big chances(4) as Mbuemo.

(21/n)
The Bees beat Fulham twice this season without conceding & the performance throughout the season that Brentford had shown is remarkable. Brentford lost the last 2 matches at group stage but previous to that they won all the 8 championship matches that they played.

(23/n)
Finally I wish all the best for both the team #brentford & #FulhamFC for their final match. May the best team win.
