‘He’s picked up a shoulder injury so we’ll see how he is in the next few days.’
Elsewhere, Jannik Schuster was withdrawn at half-time, with Andrews explaining that the centre-back was managing an injury picked up in training.
‘Jannik picked up a knock during the week,’ Andrews added. ‘He didn’t quite look amazing in training yesterday, how he was moving.

‘It felt similar today in the warm-up. There was just a little incident with his ankle, so I thought it was the right decision just to take him out of the firing line.’
On his side’s performance more generally, the Brentford boss said: ‘I liked a lot today – spirit, grit, determination.
‘There was evidence of rustiness which is understandable but I don’t like to use that as an excuse but the boys have been away for three weeks so it’s trying to find the balance.
‘Then we had Kevin’s [Schade] injury, Jannik [Schuster] wasn’t right and came off at half time, so we got tested today.
‘But we’re also up against a team who I thought were just starting to click before the international break. But the fact that we’re disappointed coming away from home to a Champions League team who spend big money tells you a lot.’
Brentford are back in action next Saturday at home to Liverpool.
