Brentford vs Chelsea: Preview

Brentford are aiming to claim their first home league victory over Chelsea since 1938 when they face their West London counterparts in the Premier League tonight.

Despite beating the Blues three times at Stamford Bridge in the last five seasons, the Bees have been unable to replicate that form in the return fixture, with the last four meetings at the Gtech Community Stadium ending level.

Draws have become a theme for Brentford recently with 10 of their last 14 Premier League games going that way, including three out of four this term, but manager Keith Andrews will surely be happy with an unbeaten start to the campaign that has also seen them reach the Carabao Cup fourth round.

The Bees will be without injured quartet Mathias Jensen, Nathan Collins, Sepp van den Berg and Josh DaSilva tonight, while Kevin Schade and Vitaly Janelt will hope to continue a positive week personally after both players were selected in Jurgen Klopp's Germany squad for the upcoming international break.

If Brentford's speciality this season has been draws, Chelsea's has been goals - but not all at the right end.

The Blues' six matches in all competitions have featured 30 goals, with 18 scored and 12 conceded, in an entertaining but also frustrating start to manager Xabi Alonso's reign.

The Chelsea boss will see last Saturday's 2-2 home draw with Hull City as two points dropped, but will be encouraged by the form of £117m summer signing Morgan Rogers, Joao Pedro and Cole Palmer, which earned the latter a recall to Thomas Tuchel's England squad.

Alonso is sweating over the fitness of Pedro, who was released from the Brazil squad due to injury, as well as captain Reece James and Moises Caicedo, who are both doubts for the short trip to Brentford.

FourFourTwo's prediction

Brentford 2-1 Chelsea

The Bees have made a strong start to the campaign, so tonight could be the night they end their 88-year wait for a home league win over the Blues.
