Brentford
Joshua Dasilva is ruled out for the season with a knee injury. Rico Henry and Ben Mee will return in June from knee and ankle injuries, respectively. Ethan Pinnock and Christian Norgaard will be back in action next week after stepping up their recoveries. Brentford will start in a 3-5-2 formation, with Mark Flekken in goal. In the back three, Zanka will start alongside Kristoffer Ajer and Nathan Collins. Mads Roerslev and Sergio Reguilon should feature as the wing-backs. They will help out in the attack and provide cover to the back three as well.
Mathias Jensen will start in the midfield trifecta along with Vitaly Janelt and Yehor Yarmoliuk. The three players will look to break down the opposition’s attacking moves and protect the defensive unit. Bryan Mbeumo will lead the line along with Ivan Toney here.
Probable Lineup (3-5-2): Flekken; Zanka, Collins, Ajer; Roerslev, Janelt, Jensen, Yarmoliuk, Reguilon; Mbeumo, Toney
Brighton & Hove Albion
Solly March will return in June from his knee injury, while Jack Hinshelwood has a similar return time frame as well due to his ankle injury. Kaoru Mitoma is ruled out for the season with a lower back problem, while Billy Gilmour is unlikely to play again this season because of a knee injury. James Milner is sidelined for a few weeks with a thigh injury. The Seagulls will shape up in a 3-4-3 formation, with Bart Verbruggen in goal. In the back three, Joel Veltman will start alongside Lewis Dunk and Jan Paul van Hecke. Tariq Lamptey and Pervis Estupinan will be deployed as the wing-backs, and they will look to help out at both ends of the pitch.
Pascal Gross will start in the middle unit along with Carlos Baleba. They will look to control proceedings in the middle of the park and help out defensively. Danny Welbeck was on the score sheet at Anfield, and he will lead the line once again, with Simon Adingra and Facundo Buonanotte on either side of him. They will look to add pace and flair to the side.
Probable Lineup (3-4-3): Verbruggen; Veltman, Dunk, Van Hecke; Lamptey, Baleba, Gross, Estupinan; Adingra, Welbeck, Buonanotte
Brentford vs Brighton & Hove Albion Head-to-Head and Key Numbers

Prediction: Brentford 1-1 Brighton & Hove Albion
Both Brentford and Brighton did themselves proud against two titans of the English game over the Easter weekend, although Welbeck's opener is the only away goal that the Seagulls have managed in their last four road contests. However, faced with a Bees side - albeit an improving one - that cannot bolt the back door shut at their Gtech base, a solitary strike may be enough for De Zerbi's troops to depart with a point as the hosts' winless run continues.
