New Chelsea boss Liam Rosenior takes charge of his first-ever Premier League match this weekend after making a mixed start to life with the Blues .
The 41-year-old ’s debut in the hotseat resulted in a 5-1 FA Cup thrashing of Charlton but he then saw his side beaten 3-2 at home by Arsenal in their Carabao Cup semi-final first leg.
Chelsea vs Brentford Prediction – Premier League 25/26
Chelsea now face another London team in the form of Brentford , who head to Stamford Bridge on the back of a superb run that has lifted them up to fifth.

Chelsea vs Brentford Betting Preview
Form Guides
Chelsea Form Guide
Chelsea slumped to eighth in the Premier League following a string of disappointing results under Enzo Maresca and interim boss Calum McFarlane , but they are still just four points behind Liverpool in fourth.
They are also only two points behind Brentford and will be hoping to leapfrog the Bees with a victory on Saturday.
However, Chelsea ’s form against their west London rivals isn’t great. Of their last eight encounters, the Blues have tasted victory just once while suffering three defeats – all at the Bridge.
Will Brentford win either half? – Chelsea vs Brentford PL 25/26
Brentford are 7/4 to win either half this weekend, which looks tempting, with a draw and under 4.5 goals in total @ 14/5 another possibility.
Brentford Form Guide
A poor run in the lead-up to Christmas saw Brentford lose five of eight matches, drop to 15th in the table and knocked out of the Carabao Cup quarter-finals.
However, the Bees are now flying high after picking up 13 points from a possible 15 in the league before beating Sheffield Wednesday in the FA Cup last weekend, outscoring their six opponents by a combined 15-3 scoreline.
Igor Thiago has netted five of those goals to take his season tally to 17 and he is 7/4 to add to that at Stamford Bridge , or 10/1 to net two or more.
The Brazilian has also been booked five times in all competitions this season, and he is 2/1 to pick up another caution against Chelsea – a bet which, thanks to BOYLE Sports ’ Sub Swap feature, would be inherited by the striker’s replacement if he is substituted, giving you two chances to win.
