Mathias Jensen remains sidelined for Brentford ahead of Sunderland match
Summary

Brentford midfielder Mathias Jensen will miss Saturday's Premier League fixture against Sunderland at Gtech Community Stadium. Head coach Keith Andrews confirmed that Jensen is still managing a minor injury that kept him out of the previous match against Leeds United. No fresh injury concerns emerged from that recent trip to Elland Road, and the squad has recovered for this weekend. However, Josh Dasilva will be unavailable until the upcoming international break due to a hamstring injury sustained in an Under-21 game. Elsewhere, Sepp van den Berg continues his rehabilitation from a groin issue and is expected to return after the international break, while Antoni Milambo remains on track to rejoin B-team competition soon following an anterior cruciate ligament injury.

What they're saying

Keith Andrews was not shy in making changes at the break and it almost secured Brentford three points. Record signing Ibrahim Sangare has had rave reviews for his performances in their first two Premier League games of the season since joining from Lens but he picked up a booking in the first half and was not at his best. Then Yehor Yarmolyuk played a role in the build-up to the opener before Damsgaard put in the ball which eventually led to Vitaly Janelt's great finish.
