With these in mind, we back the home side to score at least a goal.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Prediction 3: Over 1.5 total goals<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Burnley's last three games have produced this market, while three of Brentford's last four games have done similarly.
