Charlton defender Solly expected to miss Bees clash
Posted Friday, August 23, 2019 by PA
Charlton are expected to again be without defender Chris Solly as they prepare for the Sky Bet Championship match against Brentford.
Solly was not in the squad for the midweek draw with Nottingham Forest after suffering a head injury during the previous match against Barnsley, and continues to be monitored under the concussion protocol.
Midfielder Erhun Oztumer impressed after making a debut following his move from Bolton, so should feature again.
Israel forward Tomer Hemed needs to build up match fitness following his switch from Brighton, while midfielder Beram Kayal (groin) and left-back Lewis Page (hamstring) also both continue their own recoveries.
Brentford boss Thomas Frank may look to freshen up his side following the midweek 1-0 defeat to Leeds.
Midfielder Josh Da Silva and forward Said Benrahma could come into contention after substitute appearances at Elland Road.
Defender Ethan Pinnock made a welcome return from his recent injury lay-off, so should retain his place in the starting XI.
New signings defender Dominic Thompson and forward Joel Valencia, though, are still waiting to make a first Championship appearance for the Bees.
