Brentford head to Premier League rivals Bournemouth tonight looking to advance in the Carabao Cup.
A dispiriting 3-1 loss at Nottingham Forest on the opening day of the season was soon forgotten with a much-needed 2-0 win over newly promoted Sunderland as manager Keith Andrews secured his first win in the job.
The trip to Bournemouth is a tricky one. The Cherries almost snatched a point at Premier League champions Liverpool before beating Wolves last time out.
Brentford hope to hand Aaron Hickey his first competitive start at right-back after two injury-ravaged seasons, while summer signing Dango Ouattara is expected to start after scoring his first goal for the club last time out.
