Confirmed team news: Andrews makes two changes for Everton clash | OneFootball

Head coach Keith Andrews has made two changes to Brentford’s starting XI for this afternoon’s Premier League game against Everton (3pm kick-off BST).

The seventh-placed Bees have an almost identical record to David Moyes’ Everton, with only goal difference separating the sides heading into this afternoon’s meeting at Gtech Community Stadium.

A goalless draw with Leeds United before the international break extended the Bees’ unbeaten run in the Premier League to four matches.

Kristoffer Ajer and Mikkel Damsgaard come into the Bees side today. Ethan Pinnock and Jordan Henderson are the two players to make way, with the latter not named in the matchday squad.

Riley Owen replaces Conor McManus on the bench, with the midfielder making his first appearance in a senior squad.

Brentford: Kelleher; Kayode, van den Berg, Collins, Lewis-Potter; Yarmoliuk, Jensen, Damsgaard; Ouattara, Thiago, Schade

Subs: Valdimarsson, Pinnock, Nelson, Ajer, Donovan, Bentt, Shield, Stephenson, Owen

Everton: Pickford; O'Brien, Tarkowski, Branthwaite, Mykolenko; Gueye, Garner; McNeil, Dewsbury-Hall, Ndiaye; Beto

Subs: Travers, Patterson, Keane, Barry, George, Dibling, Coleman, Röhl, Iroegbunam
