With Brentford entering their fourth consecutive season in the Premier League, they welcome Crystal Palace to the Gtech Community Stadium for their opening 2024/25 fixture.
Thomas Frank has become a household name in the Premier League after displaying top tactical capability as the Bees’ manager.
The side from West London finished 16th last season, 13 points away from the relegation places and lost just two from the final nine league matches.
A 16th place finish was disappointing for Brentford after finishing ninth and 13th in the seasons prior, but the Bees had to deal with the absence of Ivan Toney, who missed eight months due to a gambling ban.

Alongside this, Brentford welcome Wolves to West London, a team they faced four times in all competitions last season.
