Newcastle 2-0 Nottingham Forest
Frustrating one for Ange Postecoglou. He had the right idea to make his team more defensively compact but that cost them a lot of attacking intent and ultimately it is still two goals conceded - although not much he can do about decision-making like Elliot Anderson's to give away the penalty.

The reason Palace missed all those chances and aren’t winning is definitely the three at the back system right?

Match Facts
Since completing a Premier League double over Manchester City in 2022-23, Brentford are winless in their last four against the Citizens in the division (D1 L3).
Manchester City have only lost one of their four Premier League visits to Brentford (W2 D1), going down 1-0 on the final day of the 2022-23 season.
Brentford won 3-1 against Manchester United last time out. The only team to face both Manchester clubs in consecutive Premier League games and win them both are Tottenham Hotspur in January 1996 (4-1 v Man Utd, 1-0 v Man City).
Brentford have won four of their last six Premier League home games (D1 L1), scoring at least twice in five of those matches. This comes after an eight game winless run at Gtech Community Stadium, a run in which they failed to score on five occasions.
Manchester City are the only side to have spent more than half of their game time in a winning position in the Premier League this season (55.3%). The Citizens have spent over two hours in the lead in their last two away league games, but have failed to win either match (D1 L1).
Manchester City (18.4%) and Brentford (17.7%) have the two highest shot conversion rates in the Premier League this season. Indeed, the Bees have had the joint-fewest shots so far this term (51), but rank joint-sixth for goals scored (9).
Both Brentford and Manchester City lead the way in goals from fast breaks in the Premier League this season (3 each), with two of the Bees’ coming against Manchester United in their last match.
Pep Guardiola has won 249 of his 348 Premier League matches as Man City manager (D50 L49). The Spaniard could become the 16th manager to win 250 top-flight games with a single club and would reach that total in only 349 games – 74 games quicker than anyone else has managed (Arsene Wenger at Arsenal, 423 games).
Brentford’s Igor Thiago has scored five goals from six shots on target in all competitions this season. Meanwhile, in the Premier League the Brazilian has the highest shot conversion rate of any player to have 10+ shots this term (40% - 4 goals from 10 shots).
Two of the three players to apply the most high-intensity pressures to opponents in the Premier League this season are Brentford’s Igor Thiago (354) and Yehor Yarmoliuk (340). Thiago ranks first for this metric in the opposition half (234), while Yarmoliuk is top in his own half of the pitch (244).
Man City’s Phil Foden has only scored more Premier League goals against Brighton (8) than he has against Brentford (7), with six of his seven goals against the Bees coming at the Gtech Community Stadium.
