West Brom eased past Harrogate with an emphatic win against the League Two side. Slaven Bilic reshuffled the team and made ten changes to the starting eleven to the side that lined up against Leicester in their 3-0 home defeat on their Premier League return and gave three players their debuts.West Brom avoided an upset with a routine win and the visitors were undone by three moments of brilliance from the Premier League newcomers.
However, West Brom suffered a 5-2 defeat to Everton on Saturday as Gibbs and manager Slaven Bilic were both shown red cards just before the interval.The Baggies will have to pick themselves up before Tuesday, and giving the strength of the opponent, Bilic may not temper with the team as much as he did against Harrogate.
This is Brentford's third time in four years that they have reached the last 32 of the Carabao Cup. They did so by beating the Saints at St. Mary's Stadium with goals from Christian Norgaard and Josh Dasilva in the first-half. Meanwhile, the Bees won their first Championship game at their fantastic, albeit empty, new Community Stadium, against Huddersfield. It was a comfortable 3-0 win and it sets them up nicely before their cup clash against West Brom.
These two sides are well familiar with each other having battled for the promotion last season. Brentford took four points from their two last season's fixtures, but West Brom eventually earned automatic promotion while the Bees lost in the play-off finals. Brentford's last two trips to West Bromwich finished in 1-1 draws and the third time might be a charm for them.

These two teams played two matches last season in the Championship. It was a 1-1 draw at the Hawthorns and a 1-0 Brentford win in a reverse fixture in June. In cup games, Baggies have a 35% success rate at home in the last 20 matches, while the Bees lost 10 of their last 20 away cup games.
West Brom kept a clean sheet in their last home cup match and finished another 6 out of 20 without conceding. Brentford are good on the road and the last 8 matches saw them find the back of the net.
While at home West Brom has finished 60% of their matches with both team on the scoresheet and their last home cup game without both teams scoring was a 0-3 defeat to Palace in 2018. Brentford, on the other hand, last kept a clean sheet away at Southampton in a 0-2 win in September.
West Brom's goal count in their most recent cup matches at home is 3.1 and Brentford's is 3.9 goals in their away fixtures. Having in mind their recent form, it wouldn't be surprising for the visitors to upset the hosts, but because of the Slaven Bilic's sending off this weekend and the Baggies' poor form at the start of the new campaign, we may expect a tight and cagey game.
My prediction: under 2.5 goals

Tucker grew up in London, more precisely in West London. But, unlike many locals, he doesn’t like big and famous teams from that part of the city. Instead, ever since he was a kid, Tucker was passionate for lower divisions. This passion was born when his uncle from Reading took him to the local derby with Aldershot Town when he was 6 and since that moment football was running through his veins. He became a huge fan of the Royals for life, and whenever he could, he goes to Madejski Stadium to enjoy the game. Apart from being a job, his sports knowledge also becomes more than useful when he is betting live on high stakes which is also his passion.
