Mauricio Pochettino brought himself some breathing space by overseeing a 3-2 F.A. Cup victory over Leeds in midweek. Chelsea are now through to the quarter-finals, but their position in the bottom half of the EPL table shows there is plenty of work still to do.
Chelsea are only four points off seventh, which is likely to be a European qualification berth. But consistency continues to elude them and it is difficult to predict which version of Pochettino's team will show up at the Gtech Community Stadium.
Brentford have had plenty of joy from this fixture in recent times, winning three of their last four meetings with their west London neighbors. Thomas Frank could do with another victory here: following a 4-2 loss to West Ham on Monday, Brentford are just five points clear of the relegation zone.
A front two of Ivan Toney and Yoane Wissa will look to prey on Chelsea's defensive deficiencies on Saturday. The Blues will have to stand up to the physical challenge posed by their opponents, as they seek to climb back into the top 10.
