Brentford vs Chelsea. Predicted line-ups and latest news

In the 27th round of the English Premier League, Chelsea will face Brentford away. Dailysports has compiled the latest updates on the match, along with the tentative line-ups of the teams.

Both teams approach the match with a significant number of personnel issues, particularly affecting Chelsea throughout the season due to injuries.

Ahead of the FA Cup game against Leeds, Chelsea has once again lost the services of the new striker Christopher Nkunku, who will be sidelined for several weeks.

Unavailable for the match are central defenders Wesley Fofana, Benoit Badiashile, central midfielders Romeo Lavia, Lesley Ugochukwu, and Carney Chukwuemeka, right-back Reece James, and left-back Marc Cucurella.

Unlike the FA Cup match against Leeds, it is likely that Mikhail Mudrik and Noni Madueke will return to the bench, with Raheem Sterling and Cole Palmer playing on the attacking flanks.

As for Brentford, Thomas Frank still cannot count on central midfielder Josh Dasilva, left-back Rico Henry, center-back Ethan Pinnock, left-back Aaron Hickey, as well as wingers Kevin Shadé and Bryan Mbeumo.

The participation of Brentford's defensive leader Ben Mee was questionable, and indications suggest that he won't be able to play.

Possible Brentford line-up

• Flekken - Roerslev, Zanka, Collins, Ajer, Reguilon - Onyeka, Norgaard, Jensen - Maupay, Toney

Possible Chelsea line-up

• Petrovic - Gusto, Disassi, Colwill, Chilwell - Caicedo, Enzo Fernandez, Gallagher, Palmer, Sterling - Jackson

The match kicks off at 16:00 Central European Time.
