Brentford XI vs Reading – Predicted lineup and team news
· Yahoo Sports
Brentford travel to the Select Car Leasing Stadium on Tuesday for a Carabao Cup third-round tie against Reading, with Keith Andrews’ side looking to reach the fourth round for a third successive season.
The Bees remain unbeaten in all competitions this term, though three consecutive draws have taken some gloss off that record. Andrews is expected to make widespread changes for the trip to League One opposition, having already rested key players across recent matches.

Brentford team news
Brentford will be without Kaye Furo, who underwent surgery on Monday after sustaining an injury in training. Andrews said he would have started the striker at Reading had he stayed fit, calling it a blow to a player who had impressed at academy level this season.
Benjamin Fredrick is expected to be involved after working his way back to full training, having been left out of Sunday’s B-team fixture to ensure his availability for Tuesday. Callum Wilson is set to replace Igor Thiago as the central striker, with Dango Ouattara, Fabio Carvalho and Rico Henry also in contention to start as Andrews rings the changes.
