Brentford vs Wolverhampton Wanderers Competition – English Premier League Stadium: Gtech Community Stadium Date: 16th March 2026 Kick-off time – 20:00 GMT
Brentford host Wolverhampton Wanderers at the Gtech Community Stadium on Monday evening in a Premier League fixture that carries significant weight for both sides at opposite ends of the table.
The Bees head into this one having lost their most recent outing — a 2-2 draw away at West Ham in the FA Cup, which they lost on the night, on March 9. Prior to that, they drew 0-0 away at AFC Bournemouth in the league on March 3. Before that, they won 4-3 away at Burnley in February. Earlier in this sequence, a 2-0 home defeat to Brighton and a 1-0 win away at Macclesfield in the FA Cup complete a mixed picture. Brentford have scored 44 goals this season with a goal difference of +4, but 40 conceded points to a defensive fragility they’ll need to keep in check against a side desperate for points. Carvalho, Dasilva, Milambo, Janelt and Hickey are all ruled out, with Henry and Nelson doubtful — a significant absentee list that stretches Brentford’s options considerably.
Wolves arrive at this one in similarly inconsistent form. Their most recent result was a 3-1 home defeat to Liverpool in the FA Cup on March 6. Prior to that, they beat Liverpool 2-1 at home in the league on March 3 and won 2-0 at home against Aston Villa on February 27. Earlier in this run, a 1-0 defeat away at Crystal Palace and a 2-2 home draw with Arsenal complete the picture. The stat that stands out most starkly for Wolves is their season-long defensive record — 52 goals conceded, a goal difference of -30, and just 22 goals scored make them one of the division’s most vulnerable sides. André is their sole absentee listed as out.
The head-to-head record in the Premier League strongly favours Brentford, who have won three of the last five meetings, with one draw and one Wolves victory. Most recently, Brentford won 2-0 away at Wolves in December 2025, and also won 5-3 at home in October 2024 and 2-0 away in February 2024. Wolves’ only win in this run came 3-2 at home in the FA Cup in January 2024.

Brentford are significantly impacted by injuries, losing five players outright with two more uncertain — their midfield and defensive depth is stretched heading into a crucial fixture. Wolves are comparatively better off with just one confirmed absentee, though their season-long struggles in both attack and defence suggest the squad as a whole is under strain.
