Duo in Bees frame
James Tarkowski and Alan Judge are in contention to return to the Brentford squad for the visit of promotion rivals Bournemouth.
Defender Tarkowski missed last weekend's 3-0 defeat at Charlton with a back injury while midfielder Judge has been out for six weeks with a knee problem but both should be available.
Left-back Jake Bidwell will miss out again through suspension, however, while January signing Lewis Mcleod is not quite ready to make his debut following a hamstring injury.
Striker Scott Hogan remains a long-term absentee with cruciate damage.
Bournemouth will be without influential midfielder Harry Arter when they make the trip.
The 25-year-old picked up his 10th booking of the campaign in last weekend's 1-1 draw with Huddersfield and his two-game suspension means Eddie Howe will have to rejig his starting line-up against the Bees.
With Eunan O'Kane sidelined it could be Shaun MacDonald that gets the nod in the heart of midfield but Howe will, however, be able to recall defender Simon Francis at right-back.
Francis was ill on Saturday morning and was left on the bench with Adam Smith getting the nod but he is likely to return to the XI.
