Follow live coverage as Brentford face Everton in the Premier League today.

Anthony Gordon was in the Everton line-up at Brentford despite the ongoing speculation linking the young winger with a move to Chelsea.

Amadou Onana was handed a first start but new signing Neal Maupay was not registered in time to face his old club.

Mathias Jorgensen came in for Pontus Jansson in the Brentford defence.

We will bring you all the action and updates from today's game in the live blog below:

Pickford sends a long delivery down the left flank for Mykolenko, who finds McNeil with a short pass into the penalty area. The winger looks to play Gray through on goal but a miscommunication in the final-third allows the goalkeeper to claim the loose ball.

With little movement ahead of him, Tarkowski opts to hit a flat drive towards McNeil but the centre-back puts too much power on the delivery, giving Raya a goal-kick.

Mbuemo works a short-corner routine to Jensen, who immediately finds Hickey on the edge of the penalty area. The full-back sweeps a deep cross towards the back post but a brave Pickford gets through the crowd to punch it away.
