Head coach Keith Andrews provided a positive injury update before Brentford’s Premier League game against Burnley on Saturday (3pm kick-off GMT).

The Bees have lost just one of their seven games in all competitions at Gtech Community Stadium this season.

Brentford have no fresh injury concerns for the Clarets’ visit to west London. As reported last week, Fábio Carvalho has sustained an anterior cruciate ligament injury and will be out for the rest of the campaign, while Josh Dasilva (knee ligament) and Antoni Milambo (ACL) are also sidelined.

“Fábio Carvalho had his operation yesterday, which went well,” said Andrews.

“We’re delighted about that and we’ll look after Fábio on his journey back to fitness. Apart from that, we’re in a pretty good place.”

Promoted from the Championship last term, Saturday’s opponents Burnley have taken 10 points from their opening 12 Premier League matches.

And the Bees head coach was full of praise for the job Scott Parker has done at Turf Moor.

“All the focus is on Burnley,” said Andrews.

“Every part of our preparation has gone into this performance and getting it right against a very well coached Burnley team who are fighting for their Premier League lives. They know what’s at stake.

“This is a big game for us. They’re growing in confidence in the league, and some of the performances have been very good.

“The results haven’t always coincided with the performances. They’ve had very, very close games against top opposition. A lot of teams have had to wait until late to get a winner or a result against Burnley.

“[Parker] is someone I respect a lot. He had a distinguished playing career and his record as a manager [is impressive] – the promotions, the level he’s been at, the experience he has at the age he is. I have the utmost respect for the way he’s set this team up.”
