Newcastle's poor away form faces another challenge as they travel to West London to meet Keith Andrews' Brentford at the Gtech Community Stadium. The Bees have impressed under Andrews, improving steadily and turning their home ground into a tough place for visitors.
Brentford have already defeated Liverpool, Manchester United, and Aston Villa this season. So far, only Manchester City have managed to leave West London with three points. Andrews' tactical reshaping has built belief in his squad, silencing initial criticism.
Eddie Howe’s Newcastle, in contrast, are still searching for their first away victory of the campaign. With just two goals scored on the road and three draws recorded, they rank among the league’s weakest travelers. Only bottom-placed Wolves have scored fewer away goals.
The Magpies’ inconsistent season continued recently, following a poor 3–1 defeat to West Ham with an impressive Champions League win over Athletic Club. The question now is whether they can carry that momentum into domestic play.
“Will the Bees keep buzzing or can Newcastle end their away day blues?”
The clash promises intensity and tactical intrigue, as both sides look to solidify their midseason form.
Brentford’s strong home record and Newcastle’s ongoing road woes set up a Premier League meeting that could redefine both teams’ momentum heading into winter.
