Liam Rosenior takes charge of Chelsea in the Premier League for the first time as they host in-form Brentford at Stamford Bridge.

🔵 Match News & Current Form

• Chelsea are winless in their last five league matches (D3, L2)

• Only one of Chelsea’s last seven managers won their first league game

• Brentford are unbeaten in six matches (W5, D1)

• The Bees have taken 13 points from their last 15 in the league
