Chelsea VS Brentford Live Football Match

Chelsea VS Brentford Live Football Match

Chelsea are currently riding high, having won their last four Premier League matches. Their attacking prowess is evident, with at least three goals scored in their last three games. Indeed, over 2.5 goals have been scored in their last four matches, underlining their attacking threat and potentially suggesting an exciting match to come. 

 

Brentford, on the other hand, boast a remarkable record in their last nine Premier League games, with over 2.5 goals scored in eight of them. This highlights their attacking intent, but also their defensive vulnerabilities.  While they’ve won their last three away matches against Chelsea in all competitions, their overall away form this season has been poor, securing just one point from their last seven away games.

Chelsea XI (4-2-3-1): Sánchez; Caicedo, Badiashile, Colwill, Cucurella; Lavia, Fernández; Madueke, Palmer, Sancho; Jackson 

 

Brentford XI (3-4-2-1): Flekken; Van den Berg, Collins, Pinnock; Mbeumo, Yarmoliuk, Nørgaard, Lewis-Potter; Carvalho, Wissa; Thiago 

 

Chelsea will be without Reece James, Wesley Fofana, and Omari Kellyman due to injury, while Pedro Neto is suspended. 

 

For Brentford, Vitaly Janelt is a doubt, while Josh Dasilva, Rico Henry, Aaron Hickey, and Mathias Jensen are all injured. The absences in both squads could significantly impact the game, especially Brentford's lack of midfield options.
