What channel is Brentford v Chelsea Premier League match on? Kick off time, live stream and latest team news
Check out how to watch Brentford v Chelsea in the Premier League this weekend, including TV and live stream details, team news, predictions and odds.
Chelsea head into the return of the Premier League TV schedule at the top of the tree and will make the short trip to Brentford full of confidence.
The Blues boast a slim one-point gap at the top of the table, thanks mostly to their extraordinary resilience at the back which has seen them concede just three goals in seven matches.
Thomas Tuchel will expect raised performances from his attacking stars including German duo Timo Werner and Kai Havertz, but otherwise, it's been a textbook start from Chelsea in 2021/22.
Four miles away from Stamford Bridge, Brentford have been flourishing in the top flight. They sit seventh in the table following a terrific run of form that has seen them lose just one of their seven games to date.
Thomas Frank's men have been both resilient at the back and clinical up front, and troubled Liverpool to the point of a 3-3 draw in their last home outing.

Our prediction: Brentford v Chelsea
Brentford won't fear anyone. They have no reason to. They have defeated Arsenal and West Ham, and picked up that gutsy draw with Liverpool.
If 36 points is a typical cut-off point for relegation, they're a third of the way there with more than three quarters of the season to play. The pressure is off their shoulders.
Chelsea will not have an easy game here, especially given that many of their squad members could be weary from long-distance international breaks. The Blues have enough to win, but this could be a brilliant, close encounter.
Our prediction: Brentford 1-2 Chelsea (17/2 at bet365).
