Brentford without banned Neal Maupay for Carabao Cup tie against Cheltenham
Posted Monday, August 27, 2018 by PA
Brentford will once again be missing top-scorer Neal Maupay for the Carabao Cup second-round clash against Cheltenham.
Maupay serves the second of a three-game stamping ban and manager Dean Smith must decide whether to continue with teenager Marcus Forss up front after a modest debut in the 1-0 defeat at Blackburn.
Sergi Canos, Lewis MacLeod and Josh McEachran were all rested for that match and may be restored.
Rotation at the back is still possible, with Julian Jeanvier, Tom Field and Mads Bech Sorensen in the frame.
Robins caretaker manager Russell Milton has promised to choose a strong side after kicking off his tenure with a win at Cambridge.
Milton admitted some players were feeling sore after that match but will assess them again before
settling on a team.
Chris Hussey is unlikely to be risked after aggravating a groin issue and Josh Debayo stands by.
Right-back Sean Long remains out.
