Brentford are unbeaten in eight meetings with Bournemouth, winning each of the last four, including a 2-0 victory at Dean Court in the EFL Cup in August.
The Cherries have failed to win any of their last 12 away games against the Bees, dating back to a League One clash in October 2005.
Brentford vs Bournemouth preview
These two kick off just one point apart in the Premier League table, so who will climb the standings with a win in West London? Of the two, it is Brentford who are one point better off, almost entirely thanks to their home form. Last weekend, the Bees won on the road for just the second time this season, with Keane Lewis-Potter's double enough to down bottom of the table Wolves at Molineux.
At home meantime, Keith Andrews' side have lost only once, Manchester City the sole team to leave the Gtech victorious to date, winning three on the spin prior to an underwhelming 1-1 draw with Leeds last time out. In the next ten days, Brentford also welcome Spurs and Sunderland to West London, with a trip to Everton sandwiched in-between, so can they continue to build momentum?
Bournemouth meantime are still searching for a first victory since October. Andoni Iraola's side were enjoying a seven match unbeaten streak, but are now without a win in eight, plummeting from second all the way down to 15th during this timeframe.
Last weekend, it appeared as though the Cherries wait for a win would come to an end, with Antoine Semenyo firing them in front against Burnley at Dean Court, only for the Clarets to equalise in injury time. That's now three successive draws for Bournemouth and, with games against Chelsea, Arsenal and then Tottenham up next, Iraola will be desperate for his team to end their winless streak here.

Bournemouth team news
Tyler Adams is sidelined for at least two months after tearing a medial collateral ligament at Old Trafford, joining Veljko Milosavljević and Ben Gannon-Doak in the treatment room. In better news, Ryan Christie came off the bench last weekend, having sat out the previous four matches.
Elsewhere, Lewis Cook is set to continue to deputise for Adams; Álex Jiménez and Antoine Semenyo would both sit out Tuesday's trip to Stamford Bridge if booked.
Bournemouth predicted lineup vs Brentford: (4-2-3-1): Petrović, Jiménez, Diakité, Senesi, Truffert; Cook, Tavernier, Semenyo, Brooks, Kluivert; Evanilson.
Bournemouth player to watch vs Brentford
All the talk around Antoine Semenyo surrounds a possible January move, having scored eight Premier League goals this season, but he remains a Bournemouth player for now, so can he now scored against Brentford for the first time, with this set to be his eighth attempt to do so?
Brentford vs Bournemouth prediction
This game guarantees goals, as all matches at the Gtech do, and we are backing Brentford to make home advantage count with Bournemouth's winless run continuing: Brentford 2-1 Bournemouth.
