Rico Henry - Starting as expected Henry is fit and in the starting XI for Sunday's match against West Ham.
Impact Henry returns as expected from an arm injury to take up a role in Brentford's starting XI. The wing-back has helped his club keep seven clean sheets while providing two assists and 73 crosses in 35 appearances.
MAY 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Ivan Toney - Out with hamstring injury Toney is not in the match day squad to face West Ham on Sunday due to a hamstring injury.
Impact Toney misses out on Sunday's match after coming down with the injury in the buildup. The forward's absence is a massive one for Brentford as Yoane Wissa will lead the line in Toney's place.

Rico Henry - Available Sunday Henry (arm) will be in contention for Sunday's clash with West Ham United.
Impact Henry left Saturday's matchup against Liverpool in the 72nd minute due to his arm problem but appears to be no worse for the wear. Considering the left-back has started all 34 of his appearances for the club this season, he should be considered a lock for the starting XI, where he should be capable of generating plenty of crosses.
MAY 12, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Thomas Strakosha - In doubt versus West Ham Strakosha (calf) is a doubt ahead of Sunday's matchup with West Ham United.
Impact Strakosha has yet to make an appearance for the club in Premier League action this season with David Raya starting all 35 matches for the club. As such, Strakosha's continued absence is unlikely to impact the majority of fantasy players.
MAY 12, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Kristoffer Ajer - Available versus Hammers Ajer (calf) will be an option against West Ham United on Sunday after manager Thomas Frank told reporters, "He was on the bench against Liverpool and he'll be available for selecti...
Impact Ajer was included in the squad versus Liverpool on Saturday but was left on the bench. Prior to his extended absence, the central defender was an unused substitute in four of his last five appearances, making him far from a lock to feature in Sunday's matchup.

Liverpool's best and worst players in win over Brentford Who Liverpool’s best and worst performers were in their 1-0 win against Brentford on Saturday.
MAY 6, 2023 • STAR-TELEGRAM.COM
David Raya - Four saves in loss David Raya had four saves and allowed one goal in Saturday's 1-0 loss to Liverpool.
Impact Raya was beaten early in the first half when Mohamed Salah bundled in a goal from close range, but was nearly perfect from that point onwards. The goalkeeper will be disappointed to have come away with the loss, but he did well to keep the game even close. Raya has kept 10 clean sheet in 35 Premier League starts, while making an impressive 142 saves.

Rico Henry - Forced off with arm injury Henry had one shot (zero on goal) and two crosses (one accurate) in Saturday's 1-0 defeat to Liverpool. He was injured and subbed out in the 72nd minute.
Impact Henry was having yet another brilliant match at left-back but was forced off with an apparent arm injury. If the injury proves to be serious and keep Henry sidelined it could be Vitaly Janelt who moves back to get the start at left-back, or Kevin Schade, who came on to replace Henry. Schade would be the more attacking option with his natural role lying further up the pitch.
MAY 6, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Mathias Jensen - Creates pair of chances Jensen had four crosses (zero accurate) and two chances created in Saturday's 1-0 loss against Liverpool.
Impact Jensen created a pair of chances on four crosses but was held off the scoresheet for a seventh straight match. The midfielder was red-hot to start the Premier League but has cooled down considerably in the run-in. That said Jensen is still in the midst of his by far most productive campaign in England with 10 goal contributions and 45 chances created on 154 crosses (73 corners.)

Bryan Mbeumo - Six crosses in loss Mbeumo registered one shot (one on goal), six crosses (zero accurate) and two corners in Saturday's 1-0 defeat versus Liverpool. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 27th...
Impact Mbeumo was held off the scoresheet for a second straight match but produced strong volume yet again. The striker has been excellent in his second Premier League season, already setting a new career-high of 12 goal contributions, a tally he could add to in the closing stages of the Premier League. Mbeumo has created 45 chances in 35 appearances while adding 58 shots as well from the right wing.

Kristoffer Ajer - Makes bench against Reds Ajer (calf) is on the bench for Saturday's game against Liverpool.
Impact Ajer had already been deemed as available by manager Thomas Frank earlier this week, so it's not surprising to see him making the bench. Brentford will start three center-backs in this game, with that defensive unit being formed by Zanka, Ethan Pinnock and Ben Mee.

Zanka - Takes shot in start Zanka made a block, three clearances and took a shot in last week's 2-0 victory against Chelsea.
Impact Zanka made his first Premier League start since Jan. 2 in last week's win over Chelsea. He's also only made two appearances off the bench in that span as he had fallen behind Pontus Jansson (hamstring) in the center-back depth chart.
MAY 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Ben Mee - Takes two shots in win Mee made a block, three clearances and two interceptions in Saturday's 2-1 victory against Nottingham Forest. He also took two shots (one on target) in the match.
Impact Mee played well on both sides of the ball in Saturday's win over Forest, and he's played 95 percent of Brentford's Premier League minutes in this campaign from central defense.
MAY 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Saman Ghoddos - Creates chance off bench Ghoddos subbed into Saturday's clash against Nottingham Forest in the 77th minute and created a chance in the 2-1 victory.
Impact All 13 of Ghoddos' Premier League appearances this season have been as a substitute, a significant decrease in playing time from 2021/22 when he started four games for Brentford.
MAY 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Mikkel Damsgaard - Takes two shots in win Damsgaard made a clearance, an interception and took two shots (one on target) in Saturday's 2-1 victory against Nottingham Forest.
Impact Damsgaard made his first start in five games on Saturday after previously making the XI five times out of six from the start of March through early April. He's taken four shots (two on target) and created four chances across his 10 Premier League appearances in total during that span.
MAY 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Keane Lewis-Potter - Will not return this season Lewis-Potter (knee) has been ruled out for the remainder of this campaign, Brentford manager Thomas Frank confirmed on Thursday.
Impact Lewis-Potter made 10 appearances (three starts) during his rookie season in the Premier League with Brentford, and he assisted a goal against Everton back an August. But the 22-year-old winger will not return in this campaign as he continues recovering from a knee surgery he underwent in early March.

Christian Norgaard - Might not play again this season Norgaard (Achilles) will miss this weekend's clash against Liverpool, and Brentford manager Thomas Frank said Thursday that he thinks it will be "difficult" for him to return by th...
Impact Norgaard has missed his side's last two games with an Achilles problem, and he might not be able to feature again in this campaign. Mikkel Damsgaard, Josh Dasilva, Frank Onyeka and Shandon Baptiste could all see starts in midfield while he's out.
MAY 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Kristoffer Ajer - Available for weekend Ajer (calf) "will be available for selection" to face Liverpool on Saturday, Brentford manager Thomas Frank announced Thursday.
Impact Ajer has missed Brentford's last nine Premier League games since suffering a calf injury in mid-March, but he's been able to feature for the reserve team recently in order to get back up to fitness, and now should be available to mark his return to the senior side against Liverpool this weekend.

Yoane Wissa - Re-signs with club Wissa will stay in West London after agreeing to a three-year contract extension through 2026, with an option for the 2027 season, the club announced.
Impact Wissa joined the club in 2021 after spending a few seasons playing in France. He's totaled 13 goals and three assists in 64 appearances so far. This year, the winger has totaled five goals and two assists with 13 starts in 34 appearances, only needing two goals to match his total from last year. The decision to re-sign him came after Wissa scored the second most goals for the club since last year, behind Ivan Toney in that count.
