Brentford has a very good chance of making it to the Carabao Cup quarterfinals tonight.
With Sheffield Wednesday being near the bottom of the Championship table, Thomas Frank’s team will be hoping to prolong their run in the tournament when they visit them in the fourth round this evening.
The Premier League team is therefore without a doubt the favorite going into tonight’s match.
To get here, the Bees defeated Leyton Orient and Colchester, while Wednesday had previously defeated Grimsby and Hull.

When their favorite Brentford team hosts Sheffield Wednesday in the EFL Cup last 16 on Tuesday, the supporters at Gtech Community Stadium will be hoping for a more peaceful match.
After their thrilling 4-3 Premier League victory against Ipswich Town on Saturday, the Bees are vying for a spot in the quarterfinals, while their Championship opponents won by one goal away to Portsmouth over the weekend.
Goal-filled extravaganzas at the Gtech Community Stadium, death, and taxation. A few weeks after Wolverhampton Wanderers and Brentford shared an incredible eight goals at home, Brentford put on a similarly memorable show against Ipswich on October 26.
Super substitute Liam Delap sent the away end into chaos, seemingly relegating Thomas Frank’s team from a 2-0 deficit to a 3-2 lead. However, Bryan Mbeumo’s cross from the right side managed to elude everyone, including Ipswich goalkeeper Arijanet Muric, and complete an incredible win for the buzzing Bees.
Mathias Jensen returned from a calf injury off the bench for the last 20 minutes of Brentford’s incredible victory against Ipswich, while Kristoffer Ajer missed out due to a foot issue and is not anticipated to be risked today either.
Long-term quintet Josh Dasilva (knee), Gustavo Nunes (back), Igor Thiago (knee), Aaron Hickey (thigh), and Rico Henry (knee) are also still undergoing treatment, but there is optimism that the latter will finally return sometime next month.
Frank has said that he would have a “very strong” squad for the match, but players like Kevin Schade and Fabio Carvalho, whose creative thunder has been stolen by Mikkel Damsgaard in recent weeks, should show off up front.
Brentford possible starting lineup:
Valdimarsson; Roerslev, Mee, Van den Berg, Meghoma; Jensen, Norgaard, Janelt; Carvalho, Schade, Wissa
Sheffield Wednesday possible starting lineup:
Charles; Palmer, Bernard, Iorfa; Valery, Bannan, Ingelsson, M. Lowe; Musaba, Windass; Smith.
