Bees wait on trio
Brentford have a few injury concerns ahead of the clash with Reading at Griffin Park.
Midfield duo Alan Judge and Alan McCormack picked up knocks at Watford on Tuesday night and winger Stuart Dallas has been carrying a thigh injury, but the Bees hope all three will be available.
Nico Yennaris (thigh), Tommy Smith, Sam Saunders (both knee) and Richard Lee (shoulder) remain on the sidelines, although all four are making good progress in their recoveries.
Striker Scott Hogan remains a long-term absentee following a cruciate injury.
Reading still have a crowded treatment room, but have no new injury worries for a change.
Jake Taylor shrugged off a tight hamstring to play in Wednesday night's goalless draw with Leeds at Elland Road while fellow winger Hal Robson-Kanu came off the bench following his recent knee injury.
Danny Guthrie is pushing for a start in midfield after coming on as a substitute in the last two matches after a calf problem.
But Jem Karacan, Danny Williams, Shaun Cummings (all knee), Garath McCleary (back) and Anton Ferdinand (hamstring) remain sidelined along with youngsters Craig Tanner and Aaron Tshibola (both knee).
