Brentford manager Thomas Frank has confirmed that midfielder Christian Norgaard, defender Kristoffer Ajer and goalkeeper Thomas Strakosha will all miss Saturday afternoon’s clash against Nottingham Forest through injury.
Forest travel to the Gtech Community Stadium looking to build on a morale-boosting win over Brighton and Hove Albion this week. The Reds moved out of the relegation zone with a 3-1 home win over the Seagulls, but know that winning again is the only way to guarantee to stay out of the bottom three at the end of the weekend.
The Reds currently sit in 17th place in the table, one point above 18th placed Leicester City and two points ahead of Everton in 19th position. Both Leicester and Everton face each other on Monday night in a game which could also impact Forest.
