Confirmed Chelsea team vs Brentford – Silva and Aubamayang rested, Gallagher and Broja start

Graham Potter has made five changes to his Chelsea side for this evening's Premier League clash against Brentford – the most notable of which sees Armando Broja come into the attack for what is his first start for the Blues.

Rotation was inevitable, with the clash at the Gtech Community Stadium coming a little more than 72 hours after the Blues overcame Aston Villa in a hard-fought contest at Villa Park. And Potter has made it clear he will regularly change up his team ahead of the World Cup next month.

Kepa Arrizabalaga continues in goal. The Spaniard has been rejuvenated under Potter and is looking to secure his fifth consecutive clean sheet, having kept shutouts against Wolverhampton Wanderers and Villa in the Premier League and two against AC Milan in the Champions League.
