The key stat: XI attacking output. Of everything on this page, this is the biggest difference. It goes to Brentford: 2.97 to 2.11. Historically, the side naming the more potent eleven takes these roughly 73% of the time. Those underneath were selected on the same basis.

Against the call – Brentford lead on it, and Leeds United still shade the call – on home advantage and recent shots on target.
