Analyzing user intent on football news

It seems the user might be sharing a news headline and possibly looking for a response or analysis. I should reply concisely while adding context and statistics, focusing on tactical matchups like Arsenal's pressing against Brentford's strengths. I’ll include their head-to-head record since Brentford's promotion in 2021, like their previous matches and results.

I also want to clarify the coaching situation: Thomas Frank became the Brentford head coach in October 2018, which means the earlier games were under Dean Smith.Clarifying match history and analysis

I realize that the 2018 EFL Cup match was under Dean Smith, not Thomas Frank. The record may reflect Frank's managerial matches, possibly showing 1-2-7 over 10 matches, including Premier League and League Cup games. The user seems to want commentary on the matchup.

My quick take: Yes, Arsenal present a tough challenge. Their wingers effectively pin Brentford's wing-backs, and their aerial defense has improved. Brentford's reliance on set-pieces could be limited since Arsenal is strong defensively in that area, especially with key absences for Brentford.
