- 0' Welcome to Brentford Community Stadium that hosts another battle between Brentford FC and Derby County FC.

- 20' Josh Dasilva has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 37 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 25' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
- 30' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
- 35' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Vitaly Janelt made 324 appearances and scored 10 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 40' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.
