Brentford team news

Frank confirmed that Ethan Pinnock wouldn't be rushed back from a thigh injury for the final game of the season after defeating Everton last weekend. Mathias Jorgensen had his campaign cut short by April but Saman Ghoddos returned to some form of light training at the start of May but won't be involved on Sunday.

Frank Onyeka has "a chance" of featuring against Leeds according to his manager after sitting out the entirety of April and what we've had of May with an ankle injury.


Leeds team news

Patrick Bamford hasn't quite had his season concretely wrapped up but is "touch and go" ahead of the final match of a frustrating campaign. Adam Forshaw (knee), Crysencio Summerville (ankle), Stuart Dallas (femur) and Tyler Roberts (thigh) have all been ruled out.

Luke Ayling and Dan James have also had their campaigns cut short by the red cards they received in consecutive matches this month.


Brentford vs Leeds score prediction

Brentford may not have a great deal left to play for - especially compared to Leeds' relegation plight - but Frank's side demonstrated the threat they pose against Everton, another club that were fighting the drop, just last weekend.

The pair played out a thrilling 2-2 draw at Elland Road in December but both sides have dramatically changed in the intervening months - with Brentford unmistakably improved by the addition of Christian Eriksen while Leeds are missing half of the outfield starters from that day.

Prediction: Brentford 2-0 Leeds
