Currie leads Barnet into Brentford showdown

Darren Currie takes charge of National League side Barnet against Brentford in the FA Cup fourth round in his first match since being appointed permanent head coach.

Currie was in caretaker charge when he guided the Bees to their third-round win over Sheffield United.

He will be without goalkeeper Mark Cousins, who is suspended after he was sent off in the third minute of last weekend’s 4-0 defeat at Braintree.

Teenage Latvian keeper Rihards Matrevics, signed from West Ham in the summer, is set for his full debut.

Championship Brentford are still without midfielders Emiliano Marcondes and Lewis Macleod.

Marcondes is battling back from an ankle injury and Macleod has a hamstring problem.

Boss Thomas Frank will make changes with goalkeeper Luke Daniels set for a run-out along with Moses Odubajo and Sergi Canos.

Defender Chris Mepham this week completed his £12million switch to Premier League Bournemouth.
