A fiery west London derby kicks off Friday Night Football tonight as Brentford host Chelsea at the Gtech Community Stadium.
Keith Andrews’ Brentford side enter the weekend seventh in the table on six points, remaining unbeaten following an opening-day victory over Tottenham and three consecutive draws against Bournemouth, Sunderland, and Leeds. Sitting one point and one place ahead in sixth, Xabi Alonso’s Chelsea are desperate to break a two-match winless skid after a draw with Hull City and a defeat at Arsenal.

Team News & Score Prediction
Brentford Squad Updates: Keith Andrews remains without several key options. Josh Dasilva (hamstring), Antoni Milambo (ACL), Nathan Collins (calf), Sepp van den Berg (groin), and Kaye Furo (metatarsal) are all ruled out, while midfielder Mathias Jensen also misses out tonight.
Chelsea Squad Updates: Xabi Alonso confirmed attacker João Pedro could feature despite withdrawing from recent international duty with Brazil. Reece James, Moisés Caicedo, Marco Palestra, and Jordan Henderson are undergoing final fitness evaluations before kickoff.
Match Prediction: While Brentford’s dangerous set-piece setup will test Chelsea’s backline, the Blues possess the elite attacking firepower required to slice open the Bees on the counter-attack. Expect a tense battle early on before Chelsea’s quality shines through in a 3-1 win for Chelsea.
