THREE POINTS IN THE BAG!

Excellent work from Mitoma as he thunders down the left before cutting in, but he's upended by Yarmoliuk. Yellow card for the Brentford player. Free-kick to Albion.

James Milner is replaced by Carlos Baleba. An incredible shift from the record breaker.

A cross is swung into the Albion box and it comes off Joel Veltman's knees. It looks as if it's going in but Verbruggen gets down brilliantly to tip it away from goal. Top goalkeeping.

That should be one back for Brentford as Damsgaard is played in, Verbruggen races off his line but isn't getting there and the Bees midfielder looks to lob him, but plays it straight into the keeper's hands.

A big shift is now needed from the Albion. They've been fantastic all afternoon, but now they need to dig in. De Cuyper plays the ball through for Hinshelwood but Kelleher races out of his box to slide in and clear for a throw.

Maxim De Cuyper replaces Diego Gomez. Babis Kostoulas and Carlos Baleba are both ready to come on too.

Jack Hinshelwood takes the ball down on his chest on the far edge of the penalty area and hits it on the volley, but it's about ten yards wide. Jack is smiling himself. Albion have three subs ready to come on.

Mats Wieffer is replaced by Joel Veltman. The Dutchman going off the pitch is giving a rousing send off by the travelling fans. He's been excellent.

Mitoma plays it down the flank for Kadioglu who gets into the box and then pulls it to the edge of the box for Gross to hit. The technique is perfect as he hits it first time with the inside of his boot, but it's straight at Kelleher! Either side of the keeper and it's 3-0 to Albion.

That's a great chance for the hosts. Collins rises highest to a cross into the box, but the defender sends it narrowly wide to the left of goal.

Ferdi Kadioglu dives in on Dango Outtara, taking out the winger. Yellow card.

Yarmoliuk's cross finds the head of Igor Thiago, who heads wide to the right of the Albion goal. Good connection from the striker.

Brentford get the second half underway.

Albion lead 2-0 at the break. Brilliant performance so far.

Aaron Hickey needs treatment after a collision with Jack Hinshelwood. The Scotsman doesn't look as if he will be able to continue. Nathan Collins gets ready to come on.

Janelt has space to have a pop from 25 yards, but he gets his angles wrong and sends it well over the top left corner.

The Bees are looking for an immediate response. Ajer finds himself in a really good spot in the box, he opts to cross over shoot and Kadioglu gets his boot in the way. The better option would have probably been to shoot.

Pascal Gross finds Mitoma making a run into the box and the Japan international looks to pass it into the net, but instead he rolls the ball into the keeper's hands. Down the other end, Igor Thiago blasts over from an angle.

Pascal Gross's corner is flicked to the edge of the box where Milner is waiting. The record breaker connects with the ball well, but volleys just wide of the bottom left corner!

That's a terrific move by the visitors. Milner flicks the ball to Hinshelwood on the edge of the 18-yard box. He heads it down into the path of Mitoma who bursts into the box, looks to squeeze it past Kelleher, but the ball hits the keeper's leg and is behind for a corner!

Mitoma finds Hinshelwood on the edge of the box, who gets it onto his right and looks to fire it into the bottom left corner. The strike is more central and looks like Kelleher can deal with it, but the Irishman lets it slip through his gloves and it flies just wide of the target!

Mats Wieffer goes into the book for tripping Ouattara on the Brentford left. Jan Paul van Hecke looks as if he's fouled in the build up but Jarred Gillett doesn't appear to think the same. The resulting free-kick is curled straight into the arms of Bart Verbruggen. One shot each now. Both keepers comfortable.

Gross's corner falls for Dunk in the box to hit on the swivel, but he smashes it straight into the gloves of Kelleher!

A fairly low key start to this one. No shots for either side. Albion have just won a corner though as Rico Henry heads Kaoru Mitoma's cross behind.

Pascal Gross takes the kick-off. Come on Albion.

“Milner is a remarkable professional. The way he prepares his body is incredible. Two days ago I texted him at 5pm to organise a meeting for the next day — five minutes later he was in my office because he was still at the training ground recovering. “He’s playing well. Against Aston Villa he was one of the best players on the pitch. He’s honest, loyal, direct, and a pleasure to work with.”
