Brentford is seeking a better result after a 4-2 Premier League loss against West Ham United. In that game, Brentford managed 56% possession and 5 attempts on goal, while West Ham United had 15 attempts and 5 on target. Their recent high scoring pattern is not expected to continue in this game, as Brentford is unbeaten by Chelsea in their last four matches and has not won in their past two league matches.

Chelsea faces Liverpool in an EFL Cup match after a defeat to Liverpool last time out. In that match, Chelsea had 46% possession and 19 attempts on goal, while Liverpool scored 11 goals. Chelsea have been scored against in 6 of their last 6 games, with weaknesses in their defensive system.

Brentford’s Thomas Frank will miss Kevin Schade, Aaron Hickey, Bryan Mbeumo, Ryan Trevitt, and Rico Henry due to injuries. The Bees are likely to use a 3-5-2 system.

Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino is set to use a 4-2-3-1 lineup with Robert Sanchez, Malo Gusto, Axel Disasi, Levi Colwill, Benjamin Chilwell, Moisés Caicedo, Enzo Fernández, Cole Palmer, Conor Gallagher, Raheem Sterling, and Nicolas Jackson due to unknown injuries.
