- 5' Brentford FC seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
- 10' Supporters expect more eagerness from Matheus Pereira, as he is very good at scoring at The Hawthorns with 6 goals in the last 6 games.
- 15' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. West Bromwich Albion FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.

- 25' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 30' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Kamohelo Mokotjo made 344 appearances and scored 4 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
