Brentford to assess Mokotjo ahead of QPR clash

Brentford boss Thomas Frank will check on midfielder Kamohelo Mokotjo ahead of the west London derby against QPR.

The South African was a late withdrawal from the team for Tuesday night’s 2-0 defeat at Sheffield Wednesday because of calf and Achilles issues.

Josh McEachran is ready to come in again, while goalkeeper Luke Daniels (calf) also faces a late fitness test on a potential return.

Forward Marcus Forss continues his recovery from a back problem, while defender Rico Henry (foot), midfielder Emiliano Marcondes (ankle) and Lewis Macleod (hamstring) are still out.

QPR manager Steve McClaren must decide whether to stick with the same side which delivered an unexpected home win over promotion-chasing Leeds on Tuesday night.

Nahki Wells and Luke Freeman, fit again following a hip problem, both came into the team.

Forward Tomer Hemed and midfielder Ryan Manning will be hoping for a recall after dropping to the bench against Leeds.

Angel Rangel (thigh) and Geoff Cameron (ankle) continue their rehabilitation.
