Dean Smith to revert to Brentford’s strongest XI for Reading clash

Brentford boss Dean Smith will recall a host of players for the visit of Reading.

Smith made six changes for the 3-1 Carabao Cup defeat at Arsenal in midweek.

Therefore Dan Bentley, Chris Mepham, Henrik Dalsgaard, Josh McEachran, Lewis MacLeod and Neale Maupay could all return to the starting line-up.

Rico Henry is still building up his fitness following a serious knee injury.

Reading will have to make at least one change for the short trip along the M4 to Griffin Park.

The Royals finally broke their home duck with a 3-0 victory over Hull last weekend but John O’Shea was sent off late on and is suspended.

They still have injury concerns over Vito Mannone, David Meyler, Jordan Obita and Adrian Popa.

Long-term injury victims Garath McCleary and Callum Harriott are edging closer to returns.
