The Blues beat Fulham and Burnley in the league before drawing 2-2 with Arsenal last weekend, throwing away a two-goal advantage against the Gunners to share the points.
Mauricio Pochettino's side have made an underwhelming start to the 2023-24 campaign, picking up just 12 points from nine matches to sit in 10th position in the table.
Here, Sports Mole rounds up Chelsea's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their clash with Brentford, who are 14th in the division on 10 points.
Ben Chilwell
Status: Out
Type of injury: Hamstring
Possible return date: Unknown
Chilwell remains on the sidelines for Chelsea due to a hamstring issue, and it is unlikely that the England international will be back on the field until December.
Christopher Nkunku
Status: Out
Type of injury: Knee
Possible return date: Unknown
Nkunku, who arrived at Stamford Bridge over the summer, is yet to make his debut for the Blues due to a serious knee injury, but he is expected to be back on the field before the end of the year.
Wesley Fofana
Status: Out
Type of injury: Knee
Possible return date: Unknown
Fofana faces a battle to return before the end of the 2023-24 campaign, with the Frenchman undergoing a knee operation in the middle of July.
Trevoh Chalobah
Status: Minor doubt
Type of injury: Thigh
Possible return date: October 28 (vs. Brentford)
Chalobah is yet to feature this season due to a thigh problem; he was seemingly close to being in the squad against Arsenal, though, so a return for this match is possible.
Carney Chukwuemeka
Status: Out
Type of injury: Knee
Possible return date: Unknown
Chukwuemeka appears to have suffered a recurrence of a previous knee injury, and the midfielder is now expected to be on the sidelines for another few weeks at least.
Romeo Lavia
Status: Out
Type of injury: Ankle
Possible return date: Unknown
Lavia is yet to make his debut for Chelsea due to a lack of fitness and a later ankle problem, and the midfielder will again definitely be sidelined for the clash with Brentford.
Marcus Bettinelli
Status: Out
Type of injury: Unspecified
Possible return date: Unknown
Bettinelli is yet to feature this season due to an unspecified injury, and it is unclear when the experienced goalkeeper could be available for selection once again.
Armando Broja
Status: Major doubt
Type of injury: Knee
Possible return date: October 28 (vs. Brentford)
Broja was missing against Arsenal due to a knee complaint, but it is not thought to be serious, and the striker could therefore be back in the squad for this match.
