Chelsea, Recent FormGrabbing a valuable league point from their recent 2-2 draw against Arsenal will have been seen as a reasonably decent result for Chelsea. They achieved 43% possession in that match and had 11 strikes at goal, with 5 hitting the target, up against Arsenal's tally of 13 efforts at goal, 3 of which were on target.
While they have shown an appetite for goals over the last 6 matches, clocking up 8, they have not had it all their own way at the back and have given away 5 goals and some valuable points in the process. They have only kept 1 clean sheet in their last 6 home games.
Having drawn 3 of their last 6 home games they have at least put some points on the board, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win.
Brentford, Recent FormIn their last league encounter, Brentford racked up a stunning 3-0 home win against Burnley. They came away from that fixture with a 50% share of the possession and clocked up 23 attempts on goal with 10 on target, in comparison to Burnley, who managed 6 attempts on goal, 1 of which were on target.
It's fair to say that manager Thomas Frank will be pretty happy with his squad's ability to find the net of late, having scored 8 goals in their last 6 matches. That said, he will also be aware there is still work to do at the back, where they have shipped 9 goals in those same matches as well as some valuable points. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
Having drawn 2 of their last 6 games they have at least put some points on the table, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win.
Bryan Mbeumo has scored 4 goals in the last 6 away games and will be looking to add more in this fixture against Chelsea.
In the last league encounter between these sides, it was Chelsea who ended up empty-handed, losing 0-2 to Brentford.
In their last 2 league meetings with The Bees, Chelsea have not been on scoring form, not managing a single goal.
Chelsea has a poor track record in the league when they host Brentford, losing in their last 2 home games.
Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Benoît Badiashile (Groin), Marcus Bettinelli (Unknown), Armando Broja (Knee), Trevoh Chalobah (Hamstring), Ben Chilwell (Hamstring), Carney Chukwuemeka (Knee surgery), Wesley Fofana (Cruciate ligament), Reece James (Hamstring), Roméo Lavia (Ankle), Noni Madueke (Ankle) and Christopher Nkunku (Knee) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Thomas Frank has a number of injury concerns in his Brentford squad to contend with: Shandon Baptiste (Shoulder), Mikkel Damsgaard (Groin), Josh Dasilva (Hamstring), Rico Henry (Knee), Keane Lewis-Potter (Calf), Ben Mee (Calf), Ethan Pinnock (Knock) and Kevin Schade (Hip)
