Match context
Chelsea’s season has been defined by flashes of quality undermined by costly lapses. Recent league performances have produced mixed results, with draws and narrow defeats highlighting ongoing defensive fragility despite encouraging attacking spells. Cup competitions have offered some respite, but the pressure is mounting for league improvement, particularly at home.

The Blues have hit a patchy league run, with draws against Manchester City and Bournemouth and a defeat to Fulham in recent weeks. They are coming off a mixed Carabao Cup semi-final first-leg loss to Arsenal, with defensive lapses and goalkeeper errors standing out. FA Cup progress, where they thumped Charlton 5–1, gives them momentum, but league concerns remain. However, it doesn’t help that manager Liam Rosenior must manage a squad that’s had injury and fitness challenges recently. The new Blues manager has had to deal with absences of the likes of Cole Palmer and Reece James, while Moises Caicedo will return to the team in what will be a huge boost.

Brentford, meanwhile, have been in good form, winning several of their recent Premier League matches and scoring freely. They are currently in fifth place under Keith Andrews, having won four of their last six matches. They also progressed in the FA Cup with a win over Sheffield Wednesday, showcasing squad confidence.
