The Premier League returns to the fold with another round of matches this week as Brentford lock horns with Graham Potter's impressive Chelsea outfit at the Gtech Community Stadium on Wednesday.

Brentford vs Chelsea Preview

Brentford are currently in ninth place in the Premier League standings and have been inconsistent so far this season. The home side picked up an important 2-0 victory against Brighton & Hove Albion over the weekend and will be confident ahead of this fixture.

Chelsea, on the other hand, are in fourth place in the league table at the moment and have bounced back after a slow start to their Premier League campaign. The Blues defeated Aston Villa by a 2-0 margin in their previous game and will look to achieve a similar result this week.

Brentford have relied heavily on Ivan Toney in the final third this season and do have a few issues to address ahead of this match. Chelsea are the better team on paper and should be able to win this game.
