Mikkel Damsgaard
25-Year-Old
Brentford
Premier
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Damsgaard's third season in Brentford was a revelation. He snatched a spot in the starting XI, played every Premier League match and nearly surpassed 3,000 minutes. He finished with nine assists and 63 chances created, as the connecting piece between the midfield and attack. He figures to be a key part of a new Brentford going forward, and with a role on set pieces, his numbers should only grow. The question is if his goalscoring will ever grew after getting seven shots on target last season, paltry numbers given his position.
Scores first and winner in win
Damsgaard scored two goals and assisted once from four shots and two chances created in Saturday's 4-3 victory versus Burnley.
ANALYSIS
Damsgaard scored the opening goal and the winner as Brentford won 4-3 over Burnley. This brought him up to three goals this season, and his assist for Igor Thiago brings him to four assists for the year. This was the attacking midfielder's first start in February, having been a sub in the last three games. He took four shots in the game, the most he has made in a game this season and also put two shots on target for the second time this year.

Could be option Sunday
Damsgaard (knee) is questionable for Sunday's match against Aston Villa, according to manager Keith Andrews. "It was concerning, but they're both pretty good, really. It's nothing serious. Whether they'll be available for the weekend or not, I'm not entirely sure on both of them, but if they're not, they won't be far off. That tells you it's not too bad, thankfully, because I was pretty worried."
