We will bring you all the action and updates from today's game in the live blog below:
Brentford vs Crystal Palace
Nice still on the right from Olise, rolling past Jensen before curling the ball into the box. He looks for Mateta, but the striker fails to get good contact on it with it deflecting wide.

Jensen tries to cause trouble in the Palace box with a throw-in, but it is cleared away by Doucoure before reaching a Brentford team-mate.

Lokonga plays a smart throughball between Pinnock and Hickey, finding Schlupp behind the Brentford defence. Looking for Mateta with a low cross, Pinnock gets back to clear.

Olise's inswinging corner from the right is met by Andersen, but his standing header goes straight at Raya with Hickey challenging.
Brentford vs Crystal Palace
Palace have won just one of their seven Premier League London derbies this season (D1 L5), losing each of the last three without scoring. Their only such victory this season did come away from home, however, beating West Ham 2-1 in November.

Nice play outside the Palace box. On the right flank, Mbeumo keeps the ball away from Mitchell before playing it inside to Wissa. He then looks for Hickey inside the box, with the right-back shooting straight at Guaita. Toney, who was free in the middle, is unhappy that he did not receive it.

Pulled back earlier in the game, this time Ayew is punished for stopping Mbeumo after the winger had rushed past the halfway mark.

SAVE! Raya makes an impressive save to deny Olise. On the edge of the box, Schlupp switches the ball out to the left towards Olise. Cutting onto his right foot, Olise's powerful effort is pushed over. It may have been going over, but Raya was not going to risk it.
