The late kick-off in the English Premier League on the 25th of November sees Arsenal make the short journey to the Brentford Community Stadium.
Brentford begin the weekend in 11th place on 16 points while Arsenal are in 3rd place on 27 points.
Brentford come into the game on the back of a 3-0 defeat at Liverpool in the Premier League prior to the international break.
The Bees held out until the 39th minute but once Liverpool opened the scoring, there was only going to be one winner.
Liverpool doubled their advantage in the 62nd minute and added a third goal 12 minutes later to leave Brentford with nothing.
The loss at Liverpool was the first defeat in 4 matches for Brentford, all of which were played in the Premier League.
Brentford defeated Burnley and West Ham United at home plus Chelsea away, the latter of which was an excellent 2-0 win.
Trends show Brentford have not been beaten in 20 of their 24 most recent home matches in all competitions.
They are undefeated in 9 of their last 10 Premier League games on home soil but have won only 2 of their last 6 in-front of their own fans.
Brentford have been prolific in their 19 most recent home clashes in the Premier League, scoring at least 1 goal in all of them but they have kept just a single clean sheet in their last 6.
Arsenal travel to the Brentford Community Stadium having beat Burnley 3-1 at home in the Premier League last time out.
Having taken the lead at the end of the first half, Arsenal conceded 9 minutes into the second half.
It took only 3 minutes for The Gunners to score their second goal and Arsenal took control of proceedings with their third goal in the 74th minute.
The win over Burnley means Arsenal have won 4 of their last 6 fixtures in all competitions.
The additional wins have come over Sheffield United at home in the Premier League plus Sevilla home and away in the Champions League.
There have been 2 defeats for Arsenal in their last 6 games, losing at Newcastle United in the Premier League and West Ham in the League Cup.
Trends show Arsenal have a good record of 38 undefeated games in their last 44 encounters in the Premier League. They are undefeated in 4 of their last 5 Premier League matches on the road.
Team news: Brentford are without the injured duo of Aaron Hickey and Kevin Schade. Keane Lewis-Potter and Mikkel Damsgaard are doubts while Ivan Toney is suspended.
Arsenal make the trip without suspended midfielder Fábio Vieira. Thomas Partey is injured and there are doubts over the fitness of Cedric Soares, Ben White, Martin Ødegaard, and Emile Smith-Rowe.
Brentford are capable of troubling the best teams when playing at home and we expect to see them find the back of the net in this game.
However, Arsenal are going for the title this season and they should have enough to come away with the victory.
