Brentford slowly appear to be finding their feet this season after what was an eventful transfer window for the West Londoners.

They saw the likes of Neal Maupay, Romaine Sawyers and Ezri Konsa depart with Pontus Jansson, Josh Dasilva, David Raya and Ethan Pinnock being brought in.

And they came so close to making it two wins on the bounce on Wednesday night, only for Andreas Weimann to cancel out Dasilva's screamer late in their clash with Bristol City.

This weekend sees them face another stern test when they travel to Sabri Lamouchi's high-flying Nottingham Forest, but you can bet that the Bees will be going there to win.

With the trip less than 24 hours away, we take a look at the line-up Thomas Frank is likely to pick...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The back-five really picks itself and has the potential to become one of the strongest units in the division, with Raya protected by Rico Henry, Pontus Jansson, Julian Jeanvier and Henrik Dalsgaard.

Dasilva came into the midfield fold during the week at the expense of Mathias Jensen and he impressed thoroughly, proving a tough presence in the middle of the park but also full of creativity.

Those are traits that could prove crucial against a side like Forest and with Kamohelo Mokotjo alongside him, with Christian Norgaard sitting slightly deeper, they are a unit that could trouble the Reds.

And the front three really goes without saying. Sergi Canos was dazzling in patches against the Robins whilst Ollie Watkins remains near the summit of the goalscoring charts.

Said Benrahma remains one of the most thrilling players in the division too and will no doubt be called upon to cause some issues for the Forest defence.
