Arsenal head to Brighton in the Carabao Cup looking to avoid back-to-back third-round exits.
The Gunners were confidently knocked out by Brighton at this stage last season and face a tricky trip to the west of London fearing the same fate.
Brentford, though, are licking their wounds after a rare home defeat last time out against Everton but Thomas Frank will have his players charged up for a huge cup derby under the lights.
Brentford vs Arsenal team news
Injuries are piling up for both teams, but Brentford and Arsenal should make changes nonetheless.
Brentford having doubts over Kevin Schade and are unable to play Neal Maupay, who is cup-tied after playing for Everton in the second round, meaning first-choice attackers Bryan Mbeumo and Yoane Wissa should start.
Elsewhere, though, it is an opportunity to give others minutes, including the likes of Saman Ghoddos, Frank Onyeka, Zanka and Kristoffer Ajer.
Arsenal have received positive word on Declan Rice, Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Martinelli and Leonardo Trossard following a few injury scares, but none are expected to feature in Brentford.
Second-choice goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale will start, and likely be joined by Cedric Soares, Mohamed Elneny, Kai Havertz and Emile Smith Rowe. Eddie Nketiah should keep his place as he tries to find some form in front of goal.
Brentford vs Arsenal prediction
This should be a really intriguing derby, against a team able to exploit possible weaknesses in Arsenal’s midfield.
But, as stated above, I expect both teams to make changes and the Gunners have the greater strength in depth.
Brentford vs Arsenal score prediction
Heavy rotation is expected from managers Thomas Frank and Mikel Arteta and that might make Wednesday’s game a little less fluid.
The Bees need a result to kick-start their campaign but haven’t beaten the Gunners since their glorious first evening in the Premier League when they won 2-0 back in August 2021.
However, Arsenal’s greater strength in depth should see them over the line, despite injuries starting to mount up.
Prediction: Brentford 1-2 Arsenal
