The 2022–23 season was the 133rd season in the existence of Brentford Football Club and its second consecutive season in the Premier League. In addition to the Premier League, the club also competed in the FA Cup and the EFL Cup.

Brentford enjoyed one of the best seasons in their history, including a 12-match unbeaten run between October and March, finishing the season in 9th place, narrowly missing out on a European spot. In addition, they were the only side to defeat league and European champions Manchester City at their home ground, and the only side to defeat them twice.
