Brentford host Chelsea at the Gtech Community Stadium on Friday evening in a West London derby, looking to end a run of five home Premier League games without a win against the Blues. Keith Andrews’s side remain unbeaten in six matches across all competitions this season, though 10 of their last 14 league games have finished level. Brentford enter the derby off a 2-1 EFL Cup win over Reading and can move above Chelsea in the table with victory.Brentford team newsNathan Collins (calf), Sepp van den Berg (groin) and Josh Dasilva (thigh) remain unavailable, and Andrews has confirmed Mathias Jensen will also miss out. The head coach said there are “no new injuries to report” beyond that group. Young striker Kaye Furo, who underwent surgery on a metatarsal injury earlier in the week, is said to be “in a good place” as he begins his recovery.With that group unavailable, Andrews is expected to retain a settled XI built around in-form winger Kevin Schade, who has scored three goals in five appearances this season, and Igor Thiago, who will look to add to his single league goal so far this campaign.Brentford predicted lineupBrentford possible starting XI (4-2-3-1): Kelleher; Kayode, Schuster, Ajer, Lewis-Potter; Janelt, Sangare; Schade, Yarmolyuk, Anthony; ThiagoWhen will the match kick off?The Premier League match kicks off at 20:00 on Friday, 18 September 2026.How to watch Brentford vs Chelsea?The match will be broadcast live on Sky Sports in the UK.Read more – Ex-Arsenal midfielder Wilshere failed with ambitious Dowman bidSee also – Carabao Cup draw: Liverpool to host Chelsea in Fourth RoundFollow the Football Faithful on Social Media:Facebook | Instagram | Twitter | YouTube | TikTokThe post Brentford vs Chelsea – Predicted lineup and team news appeared first on The Football Faithful.
