Christian Eriksen makes Brentford start with Ivan Toney returning to the starting XI

Thomas Frank has named his Brentford team to face Norwich City in the Premier League this afternoon.

He has decided to revert to 3-5-2, having gone four at the back last weekend against Newcastle United.

Sergi Canos comes in at RWB, with the three central defenders consisting of Kristoffer Ajer, Pontus Jansson and Ethan Pinnock.

Rico Henry is back at LWB, with Christian Eriksen making his first Brentford start along with Christian Norgaard and Vitaly Janelt in midfield.

Ivan Toney returns to the starting XI with Bryan Mbeumo, and will hope to cause the Norwich backline problems.

Brentford XI to face Norwich: Raya, Ajer, Jansson, Pinnock; Canos, Eriksen, Norgaard, Janelt, Henry; Mbeumo, Toney

Subs: Lössl, Jensen, Wissa, Ghoddos, Onyeka, Zanka, Baptiste, Bech, Roerslev
