Brentford head coach Thomas Frank has confirmed that Mathias Jensen will start for the Bees in their west London clash against Fulham on Saturday.

The midfielder came off in the 2-2 draw with Tottenham Hotspur at Gtech Community Stadium last Sunday with a quad injury.

But Jensen will be available for the derby game against the Cottagers this weekend, with Frank adding that he will start for his side.

"He's ready - that's very positive. He's going to start tomorrow," said Frank.

The Bees boss also revealed that Jensen's midfield colleague Frank Onyeka is "ready and available for the game" on Saturday.

Defender Ben Mee will undergo checks on Saturday morning on the calf injury he suffered in the Bees' pre-season friendly against Ligue 1 side Lille.

Frank went from discussing defenders and midfielders to forwards, when asked how happy he is with his frontline in the absence of the suspended Ivan Toney.

Bryan Mbeumo and Yoane Wissa both scored in the 2-2 draw with Spurs, whilst Kevin Schade came on against the north Londoners, impressing with his dribbling ability and blistering pace.

And Frank was also keen to highlight winger Keane Lewis-Potter, who impressed for his side throughout pre-season.

"They’re good players: Schade is a very good player, Wissa is a very good player, Mbeumo is probably the go-to guy now," said the Brentford head coach.

“And I think it’s also important to mention Keane Lewis-Potter. He’s a fantastic player and I have no doubt that he will be very good for us. He's been out with an injury and that just takes a bit of time to come up to pace. 

“But, throughout this pre-season, he's adding layers. I like what I see from him.

“Both Yoane Wissa and Kevin Schade are good down the middle as a no.9, they're both flexible players. They have a little bit of different attributes.

"Wissa is fantastic in the box, being in the right position, being on the last line, attacking the gaps and crosses.

"Kevin is also good at that but he's also got his incredible pace."
