Brentford will have the chance to set a new Premier League record when they travel to Stamford Bridge for Saturday's clash with Chelsea.

Brentford will have the chance to set a new Premier League record when they face West London rivals Chelsea on Saturday.

The Bees have a renewed sense of belief after they thrashed Burnley 3-0 last weekend to end a six-game winless league run.

Brentford, who occupy 14th place, will now turn their attention to the weekend's clash at Stamford Bridge, where they will be looking to claim their second top-flight away win of the season.

Their only previous away league victory took place against another West London club after the Bees cruised to a 3-0 win over Fulham in August.

The visitors have fond memories of their recent trips to Stamford Bridge, having won their last two away meetings with Chelsea.

Thomas Frank's side recorded a dominant 4-1 victory in their first-ever Premier League away match against the Blues in April 2022.

They enjoyed another successful outing in April's encounter after a Cesar Azpilicueta own goal and a Bryan Mbuemo strike guided them to a 2-0 win.

As a result of those performances, Brentford now have the chance to make history by becoming the first team to win all of their opening three Premier League away games against Chelsea.

Brentford will go into the contest without the services of Rico Henry, Josh Dasilva, Mikkel Damsgaard, Kevin Schade and Keane Lewis-Potter.

Defender Ben Mee is closing in on a return to full fitness, but he is unlikely to be ready for Saturday's encounter.
