Brentford has issued an update on seven first-team players ahead of Tuesday’s Premier League game against Bournemouth (7.30pm kick-off GMT, live on TNT Sports).

The Bees head to Vitality Stadium following a dramatic 4-3 win at Burnley last time out.

Aaron Hickey sustained a hamstring injury during the Bees’ 2-0 defeat to Brighton and Hove Albion last month. It is hoped he will return after the March international break.

Vitaly Janelt suffered a metatarsal injury during the Brighton game. He has started rehabilitation and is likely to miss some game time.

Josh Dasilva is in modified training with the first-team squad. As he continues to progress, he may be available to be in a matchday squad before the end of the Premier League season.

Antoni Milambo and Fábio Carvalho are progressing well. Both players underwent ACL reconstruction surgery in late 2025.

Reiss Nelson missed the game at Burnley with a calf problem but is expected to return to full training in the coming days.

On Caoimhín Kelleher, who missed Saturday's win due to the birth of his child, Keith Andrews confirmed in his pre-match press conference: "He was off yesterday, but he's good to go. He'll be in the squad for Tuesday."
