Chelsea will want to continue their impressive form in all competitions under Enzo Maresca having now won seven of their last eight games. A 3-1 win over Astana last time in the UEFA Conference League has all but secured their passage to the next stage of the new-look tournament.

Add that to an impressive 4-3 win over Spurs in the Premier League last week, Maresca's side are really coming together all thanks to the form once again of star man Cole Palmer.

The England international has taken his tally for the season up to 11 and with six assists to go with it, the former Manchester City is again proving his weight in gold so far this season in a blue shirt.

As for Brentford, Thomas Frank's side havent been the same since Ivan Toney's high-profile departure to Saudi Arabia in the summer and the England international has left quite the mark in attack.

Yoane Wissa and Bryan Mbuemo have been left to shield the burden and with the Bees 9th in the table, their hopes of a European finish may prove a stretch to far this year.

Watch Chelsea vs Brentford in the UK

Unfortunately, Chelsea vs Brentford will not be shown on TV in the UK.

It is taking place on Sunday because of Chelsea's commitments mid-week in Europe, but otherwise would have been scheduled for Saturday at 3pm, when fixtures are subject to a television blackout in the UK.

The Saturday 3pm blackout: Why aren't all Premier Leagues games broadcast on television in the UK?

Watch Chelsea vs Brentford in the US

In the US, you can watch Chelsea vs Brentford on USA Network, a cable television channel, or via a cord-cutting streaming service.

Despite being part of the same NBC stable, Premier League games on USA Network are not available live on the broadcasting giant's streaming platform, Peacock. That means that to watch online, you're looking at a cord-cutter – which offers TV channels in online packages – and these can be pricey.

Sling TV is one of the leading and cheapest services, starting from $40 a month for the Sling Blue package, which gets you USA Network. Fubo is another option, costing $79.99 a month (discounted to $49.99), but it does get you more live sport.

Other cord-cutting services that carry USA Network include YouTube TV, Hulu + Live TV, and DirecTV Stream.
