Brentford vs Chelsea LIVE: Premier League match stream, latest team news, lineups, TV, prediction

After a week of European and domestic cup action, the Premier League returns to our TV screens with a west London derby as Chelsea head to Brentford. The Blues are winless in their last two outings in this competition after their well-forecast defeat by Arsenal and worrying draw with Hull last time out. Calamitous defending could be cited as the cause for both goals they conceded there, but Joao Pedro struck late to bail them out.The Blues may not be able to call on the Brazilian at Brentford, though, after he withdrew from international duty with a suspected injury. The Bees, meanwhile, have made an odd start to the campaign. They are yet to taste defeat, but have drawn three of their four matches thus far after trouncing Tottenham on opening weekend.This is something of a bogey ground for Chelsea - they have not won there since 2021 - and Alonso must overcome that hoodoo if he is to come away with a vital three points tonight.
