Ipswich will once again strive to claim their first and only victory of the new Premier League season on Saturday when they travel to Brentford.

So far in the new campaign, only four teams are yet to taste victory - Ipswich, Wolves, Crystal Palace and Southampton.

Brentford's recent form has been mixed, with two wins, two losses and a draw from their last five matches.

They progressed in the League Cup versus Leyton Orient and will next play Sheffield Wednesday in that competition.
