Brentford head coach Thomas Frank has given an update on the fitness of his squad ahead of the Premier League clash with league leaders Liverpool on Saturday.

Rico Henry and Ben Mee both returned to the squad for the 2-2 draw with Manchester City on Tuesday, with the former coming on as a substitute in the 87th minute, contributing to the Bees' late comeback.

"It's the same squad as Tuesday," Frank stated. "Everyone is available that was available for the Manchester City game. There are no new injuries."

On the busy week his squad have had, he added: "We train hard with high intensity every session... but then we need to manage the workload with how long we train with that high intensity, what kind of extensive drills we build in.

"We had a very high-output game on Tuesday night, which means we have been in the whole week, no days off. The whole group were in on Wednesday to recover; on Thursday it was a light session with some tactical bits, preparing for Liverpool; Friday will be light as well, with the squad hopefully feeling fresh and ready to go for Saturday."

Frank gave a specific update on one of the Bees' injured players, Gustavo Nunes, who is yet to make a first-team squad since joining the club in the summer due to a back injury.

"He is not on the grass, so it will take him a bit longer before he's back. I don't know the exact timeframe if I'm honest.

"It's not that I don't want him back, but he is not available for the weekend," Frank stated.

"I know the medical team is taking good care of him."

Josh Dasilva (knee), Ethan Pinnock (hamstring), Kristoffer Ajer (ankle), Igor Thiago (joint infection) and Aaron Hickey (hamstring) remain sidelined.
