Brentford could be without four first-team players for the visit of Chelsea tomorrow night (October 19th) as Thomas Frank is left with a big gap to fill.
The Bees will be without left-back Aaron Hickey's services, along with goalkeeper Thomas Strakosha, Pontus Jansson and Christian Norgaard. Chelsea have injury issues themselves as N'Golo Kante, and Reece James are both sidelined until after the World Cup.
Frank's issues are spread across the team though, and missing Hickey will be a big blow after the new summer signing started eight of the nine matches so far this season.
