Correlation FC pre-game prediction

Chelsea's 3 kits this are their traditional blue, a white-ish colour and black. The black will clash with Brentford's home black shorts and socks, so that's out. While they could wear their white kit, I think they'll wear blue. If Chelsea wears blue, Brentford will pick up at least a point.
