Chelsea face Brentford this evening in the Premier League and it is fourth place against tenth.
Brentford have had a mixed bag of results so far this season having won three, drawn four, and lost three. Chelsea will be fancying themselves for all three points, but we all know Brentford can be a tough team to face, especially in their own backyard and under top management in Thomas Frank.

Graham Potter held his Chelsea press conference yesterday and he delivered the latest team and injury news ahead of the game. The embargoed section of the conference came out at 10pm last night, and questions were asked about Hakim Ziyech, who has very much been out in the cold at Chelsea lately and only really managing to get a place on the bench.
Potter confirms against Aston Villa at least, that Ziyech was actually out with a heavy cold, ironically. However, he’s back and will be ‘involved’ tonight against Brentford.
Graham Potter on Hakim Ziyech:
"He had a really heavy cold which knocked him about for a few days so the game against Villa came too soon but he's trained well recently so he'll be involved."
