Brentford team news: Thomas Frank makes two changes for Derby County clash

Rico Henry returns to the Brentford starting XI for this afternoon’s clash against Derby County in the Championship.

Henry, who has not featured since the 5-2 victory over Blackburn on February 2, comes in for Moses Odubajo, and Ollie Watkins replaces Sergi Canos in Thomas Frank’s only other change to the Brentford side.

Goalkeeper Daniel Bentley is again sidelined meaning Luke Daniels deputises for the 25-year-old, with Julian Jeanvier, Ezri Konsa and Mads Bech Sorensen making up a back three.

Henrik Dalsgaard, Romaine Sawyers, Kamohelo Mokotjo and Henry start across the midfield, with Said Benrahma, Sergi Canos and Neal Maupay playing in attack.

The Bees are without a win in four games and will face an opposition full of motivation as County look to secure a play-off spot.

Frank Lampard’s side are currently in seventh, one point behind sixth-placed Aston Villa, and arrive in west London on the back of a 6-1 thrashing of Rotherham last Saturday.

Brentford confirmed XI: Daniels, Konsa, Jeanvier, Sorensen, Dalsgaard, Sawyers, Mokotjo, Henry, Watkins, Benrahma, Maupay.

Brentford substitutes: Balcombe, Odubajo, Canos, Dasilva, Oksanen, Forss, Marcondes.
