Brentford duo ruled out of Everton Premier League clash
Keane Lewis-Potter and Thomas Strakosha are set to be the Brentford absentees when they take on Everton in the Premier League on Saturday.
According to injury expert Ben Dinnery, the two players will not be in the Brentford squad for the game at Goodison Park on 11 March.
Both teams find themselves in opposite halves of the table with the Bees challenging for Europe while the Toffees desperately fighting against relegation.
Still at full strength
Brentford may have two absentees but they’re still at full strength and it’s going to be a challenge for Everton to win this game.
Strakosha is their backup goalkeeper and with David Raya, one of the best keepers in the league this season, they are sorted in that department.
Even when fit, Lewis-Potter is not an automatic starter so Thomas Frank is unlikely to miss his services a great deal for this one.
Brentford have proven to be extremely hard to beat this season and they’re going to make things difficult for Everton if they grab a deal.
Sean Dyche needs to be ready with a strategy to break that low block and if it means being more expressive, then so be it.
Goodison Park will want Everton to take the game to the opposition and hopefully, we can get a good game from two teams that play a similar brand of football.
