Pontus Jansson - Extends Brentford contract Jansson has extended his contract with Brentford, keeping him at the club until 2023.

Impact Jansson has been a regular at Brentford the last three seasons and they've experienced how their defense looks without the regulars. While he has a goal and assist this season, his 20 starts are more important, as he's yet to miss a match to injury or COVID-19.

Mathias Jensen - Makes bench Tuesday Jensen (undisclosed) is on the bench for Tuesday's match against Southampton.

Impact Jensen is only well enough to make the bench Tuesday after leaving the Jan. 2 contest with a minor issue. It's likely he'll make an appearance against Southampton and then be in line to start Sunday at Liverpool, taking the spot of Shandon Baptiste in the XI.

Sergi Canos - Starting against Southampton Canos (hamstring) is in the starting XI for Tuesday's match against Southampton.

Impact Canos returns to the XI Tuesday after leaving the Jan. 2 match with a hamstring issue. It's unknown if he'll be able to go a full 90, but he's starting and in line to take some set pieces in a decent home matchup.

JANUARY 11, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

David Raya - Training on pitch Raya is back in limited training in his return from a knee injury.

Impact Raya is still expected to be out another few weeks, but he's making progress and should be in full team training within the next month. If all goes well, there's a chance he'll be back in the XI following the international break at the end of the month.

Bryan Mbeumo - Bags hat-trick in FA Cup Mbuemo (calf) bagged a hat-trick in 28 minutes off the bench of Saturday's FA Cup win against Port Vale.

Impact It was quite the return for Mbuemo, who had missed the last two league matches to a calf issue. Following this bench appearance, it's assumed he's ready to start Tuesday at Southampton. That said, he has just three goals in 16 league starts from 37 shots and 29 crosses.

Zanka - Edging closer to return Zanka (hamstring) recently returned to group training and could be an option in the coming weeks, according to manager Thomas Frank.

Impact Zanka could be an option before the month is over, but as long as everyone else is healthy on the back line, he probably won't see much time. For now, he's viewed as anywhere from the fourth or sixth center-back for Brentford, pointing to minimal playing time in the second half of the season.

Rico Henry - Out against Southampton Henry (hamstring) won't be available for Tuesday's trip to Southampton, according to manager Thomas Frank.

Impact This isn't surprising for Henry, who has missed the last month with a hamstring injury. While he could be an option by the weekend, it's hard to see him getting a start in his first match back following this prolonged absence.

JANUARY 10, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Pelenda Da Silva - Could be available in 5-6 weeks Dasilva (hip) is recovering and will be given time with the youth squad with the hope of being an option for the senior team before the season is over, according to manager Thomas...

Impact Dasilva started 26 matches for Brentford last season, but due to a hip injury, he hasn't been able to play yet this season. His return would be a nice boost to the side, but that's still more than a month away, so it's unknown how he'll react to playing with the B team.

Ajer shows why Frank and Brentford missed him - in attack and defence Ajer showed no ill effects from a hamstring injury and showed why his work in attack as an outside centre-back was missed by Brentford

Zanka - Still out with injury Zanka (undisclosed) does not have a timeline to return to training, according to manager Thomas Frank.

Impact It's unclear what Zanka is dealing with, but he's been out since Nov. 6 with the injury, which isn't what Brentford planned for when they brought him in. Even then, it's possible Charlie Goode is the preferred backup above Zanka, meaning upon return from injury, Zanka could be the fifth center-back option.

JANUARY 6, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Charlie Goode - Remains doubt to return Goode (hamstring) is "a little bit further away" than some of his teammates for a return to the pitch, according to manager Thomas Frank.

Impact Goode has missed the last three matches and will likely miss a couple more unless he can return to training soon. Even then, the recent return of Kristoffer Ajer likely moves Goode back to the bench where he opened the season.

JANUARY 6, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Rico Henry - Not ready for weekend Henry (hamstring) won't be ready Saturday but still has a chance for Tuesday's trip to Southampton, according to manager Thomas Frank.

Impact Henry has been out since Dec. 10 with a hamstring injury and appears to be closer to a return. This would be a month-long absence, which isn't abnormal. The hope is that he can train in the next couple days, but it's still hard to see him starting in less than a week.

JANUARY 6, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Mathias Jensen - Hopeful to face Southampton Jensen (undisclosed) is expected to be available for Tuesday's trip to Southampton, according to manager Thomas Frank.

Impact Jensen was subbed off in the 61st minute in the prior contest with what looks to be a minor issue and he may not miss a league match. After a slow start to the season, he's found his role the last few months, having started the team's last four league matches. Most importantly is that he's the main corner taker when on the pitch with nine corners in his last four appearances.

JANUARY 6, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Sergi Canos - Should be available next league match Canos (hamstring) is expected to be available for Tuesday's trip to Southampton, according to manager Thomas Frank.

Impact Canos won't be risked in Saturday's Cup match, but it looks like he's well enough that he could be ready Tuesday. It's not guaranteed he'll be ready to start, but it's at least a good sign he doesn't have a significant injury after picking up the injury Jan. 2.
