    Toney, Hickey, Henry, Roerslev, Damsgaard, Dasilva, Schade, Collins and now Ajer all out. You can build an outfield with that. The fact Thomas Frank has got Brentford so clear of trouble despite these absences needs studying. Give that man his flowers.

    Brentford continue to look comfortable in front of their home fans. Luton have haven't had an effort on target yet. In fact they've only had one shot all game.

    Is this game petering out? That would certainly suit Burnley.

    Had Rice not spotted the danger, Cunha would have been through on his own.

    It's 2-0 and Arsenal are in control of the game, but it's not completely comfortable. We've seen some crazy turnarounds this season.

    Arsenal haven't wrapped this game up just yet. Matheus Cunha drives Wolves forward, twists in the box, and fires an effort which David Raya palms away at his near post.

    Declan Rice is then on hand moments later to stop a through ball falling to the Brazilian.

    Just as well for Luca Koleosho he's offside here because the Burnley youngster skies a poor shot over the bar inside the box.

    Brentford were a little fortunate to get the opening goal of the afternoon, the ball deflected to Maupay and he had no option but to score.

    But Thomas Frank has certainly given them some impetus in this second half and the second goal from Mee has given them a cushion now.

    Sheffield United boss Paul Heckingbottom could be under pressure if they lose this. He doesn't have many options left to change things either - he has used four of his five subs.
