Brentford began their Summer Series with a 3-2 defeat to Fulham, with Yoane Wissa and Kristoffer Ajer on the scoresheet for the Bees.
Notable signings this summer for Thomas Frank include goalkeeper Mark Flekken and winger Kevin Schade from Freiburg, while Republic of Ireland international Nathan Collins was signed from Wolves.
The Bees enjoyed an impressive 2022/23 season, as they finished ninth in the Premier League, winning five of their final six matches.

We played out a thoroughly entertaining 3-3 draw against Brentford when we met in April at The Amex. Kaoru Mitoma scored the pick of the goals as he raced onto Jason Steele’s magnificent ball over the top before lobbing David Raya in the Bees’ goal. It looked as if Brentford would come away with all three points, but Alexis Mac Allister converted from the penalty spot in the 90th minute to ensure the spoils were shared.
