The officials have been confirmed for Chelsea’s Premier League clash against Brentford at the Gtech Community Stadium on Wednesday evening.
Chelsea travel across the capital to face Thomas Frank's Brentford who are currently ninth in the Premier League, while the Blues are in fourth place having won their previous four league matches and five in all competitions.
They beat Aston Villa 2-0 at the weekend at Villa Park thanks to a Mason Mount brace and goalkeeping heroics from Kepa Arrizabalaga to preserve their clean sheet and win in the Midlands.

Potter has been left puzzled by the mixed opinions left on Mount despite his quality, stating, via football.london, “It's a joy (to work with him). He's a fantastic person, he loves to play football and he loves the club here.
"It's surprising, though, that I get a few questions about there being to be mixed opinions on Mason. I find that strange, especially from the outside and then when you start to work with him, he's got everything you need to be a top, top player. Great attitude, understands spaces, can execute assists, scores goals, so he's top.”
Now the officials for the league meeting have been revealed by the Premier League ahead of the encounter.
