An enterprising Brentford were not to be denied despite hitting the woodwork an astonishing three times, coming back from behind to earn a 1-1 draw against Everton at the GTech Community Stadium. Gordon’s opener was somehow the only goal of the game for more than an hour despite Frank’s side often catching their opposing defence out of sorts but trickery from set-pieces finally paid off, with Lewis-Potter finding Janelt at the far post with a flick-on to level the match. The result keeps Everton in 17th, while Brentford are ninth.

Everton are averaging exactly one point per game under Lampard in the Premier League (P21 W6 D3 L12), the same average as his predecessor Rafael Benítez managed (P19 W5 D4 L10). Since his first game in February, only Wolves (0.90) have a lower points-per-game ratio among current top-flight sides.

Brentford’s appeals for a penalty are denied after Lewis-Potter appears to have put the ball onto the arm of Iwobi. After review though it appears as though the first contact was made with the Everton midfielder’s hip, saving his blushes.

Henry’s cross is dealt with unconvincingly by Tarkowski, whose diving header presents the ball to Janelt but Dasilva’s eventual header is saved easily by Pickford.

Brentford’s initial corner fails to trouble the Everton defence but it’s not cleared for long as the hosts take advantage of the second-phase, forcing Pickford to turn it behind from a position on his line.

Pickford steps off his line to catch Jensen’s delivery from the left but he holds onto the ball as Holgate goes down holding his knee. He’ll require a bit of treatment from the medical staff as both sides use the pause as a hydration break.

Mbeumo takes a touch to set himself before hitting a dangerous curling effort 20 yards from goal that flashes just wide of the post.

16:21 , admin

Gordon and Iwobi combine to push Dasilva off the ball, which is deemed to be a fair challenge. It brings about a chorus of boos from the home support, who will have to be satisfied with a throw inside Everton’s half.

Brentford vs Everton

16:20 , admin

It’s getting a bit heated as Onana goes into a tackle on Dasilva which wins the ball but also does a bit of damage. The referee has more or less kept his cards in his pocket so far but with tempers rising in the final 30 minutes, the match official will have to keep the two sides contained.

Brentford vs Everton

16:19 , admin

Gordon and Mee race towards the touchline to win the loose ball where the centre-back gives a little shove to his opponent - taking them both into the technical areas. The Everton forward goes directly into a Brentford coach loading to a bit of a scuffle but it sorts itself out before the referee needs to produce a card.

16:16 , admin

Gray’s corner is hit straight into the gloves of Raya, who confidently steps to the edge of his six-yard box to make the catch.

OFF THE BAR AGAIN! How much closer can Brentford get?! Jensen’s long throw-in receives a flick-on by Zanka, which takes the ball into the path of Norgaard. The captain takes a touch to control the ball before swivelling and hitting a venomous over-the-shoulder volley that hits the crossbar and Pickford’s glove before the goalkeeper is able to gather!

Jensen looks to chip the free-kick into the stride of Toney but Iwobi reads the danger and gets to the ball first to clear it away.

Toney receives the ball with his back to goal 30 yards from Pickford and goes down under Onana’s press, with the referee right on the spot to give the free-kick.

A panicked backpass from Holgate puts Pickford under immediate danger but the goalkeeper manages to make himself big under pressure from Wissa and wins a goal-kick for his troubles.

Brentford will have to continue to open up and attack, looking most dangerous on the counter-attack and after defensive set-pieces. Damsgaard is a natural choice, with the winger possessing a wicked curling shot - a tactic that the Bees have looked dangerous employing in the first half. Frank Lampard will have to decide whether to stick or twist, with Allan and Keane capable of holding a lead and Rondon a threat from corners and free-kicks.

The first half at the GTech Community Stadium comes to a close with Everton ahead by one goal to nil, thanks to Gordon’s far-post finish after 24 minutes. The hosts started the match the brighter and more adventurous of the two sides, with Wissa and Mbeumo linking up and cutting inside as much as possible. The Bees looked to have taken the lead six minutes before conceding but Jensen’s strike could only hit the base of the post. Frank’s side would then hit the post again 16 minutes later, with Toney’s header beating the goalkeeper but not the goal to keep the score unchanged.

The fourth official indicates two minutes will be added to the end of the half for stoppages.

Brentford vs Everton

15:45 , admin

With just under five minutes to go in the half, Brentford will be rueing their missed opportunities, with the Bees registering a total of nine shots - two of which hit the woodwork. Their attacking play has been very good but they’ve just lacked the final clinical finishing exhibited by Gordon earlier.

Brentford vs Everton

15:42 , admin

Jensen and Mbeumo again work a short corner but again the set-piece fails to produce a chance as the winger’s cross to the far post is shielded behind by Onana.

Brentford vs Everton

15:38 , admin

Jensen looks to continue troubling Everton from set-pieces, with the midfielder launching a long throw-in towards the penalty area. After an initial clearance a cross is swung in to the back post but Wissa’s tame shot is covered easily by Pickford.

Brentford vs Everton

15:37 , admin

Jensen floats a cross to the edge of Everton’s penalty area from a free-kick 35 yards from goal but Tarkowski wins the header and puts it out for a throw-in.

OFF THE POST AND BLAZED OVER! HOW HAVE BRENTFORD NOT SCORED?! Henry gets free of Patterson on the left wing and teases a cross into an unmarked Toney on the penalty spot. The striker rises well and makes a great connection with his header but can only send it crashing off the post. Wissa makes a late run into the box and has a volley at the open goal from five yards out but somehow sends the chance over!

Brentford vs Everton

McNeil curls in a corner but it’s put too high for Tarkowski at the back post, instead rolling behind for a goal-kick which will - at the very least - prevent a counter-attack.

Brentford vs Everton

15:32 , admin

Dasilva is squeezed off the ball by a combination of Tarkowski and Iwobi but Pickford’s pass out from the back fails to find Mykolenko, with the delivery sailing over the head of the wing-back and out for a Brentford throw.

A Brentford attack abruptly comes to an end after Toney is called for a foul on Coady, with the striker backing into the defender and sending him to the ground with a whack to the face. It’s been a physical battle so far but this time the forward is a bit too eager.

Brentford vs Everton

15:29 , admin

The hosts have often looked the better of the two sides in the opening half hour but it’s the visitors who hit first with clinical finishing. The defence will need to hold from here however, with Everton failing to register a clean sheet in the league thus far.

15:23 , admin

Mbeumo and Jensen again stand over the corner-kick but it’s the latter who drives it in, looking for Norgaard at the near post. The Brentford captain manages to flick the ball on but an alert Pickford smothers it expertly.

OFF THE POST! Brentford again counter-attack after Everton’s corner but they can only strike the base of the woodwork after Wissa’s cross is initially cleared by Holgate. Jensen picks up possession 20 yards from goal and hits a low effort to the far post that beats Pickford but not the frame of the goal!

Onana splits the lines with a pass to Patterson but Gray can only win a corner-kick thanks to Mee’s block on the cross.

Brentford vs Everton

15:17 , admin

McNeil puts an inswinging corner into the penalty area looking for Mee but it’s cleared immediately by Brentford, who launch a pacey counter-attack after exiting their own 18-yard box which is broken down by a backtracking Patterson.

Brentford vs Everton

15:15 , admin

Mbuemo and Wissa link up well in a tight area on the left wing but the latter’s cross into the penalty area is a poor effort that fails to find a team-mate.

Brentford vs Everton

15:12 , admin

Iwobi hits a curling effort towards goal from 20 yards but the shot fails to trouble Raya, who makes a clean catch without moving his feet.

Brentford vs Everton

15:12 , admin

Gray squares a pass across the 18-yard box for McNeil, who chooses to attempt a throughball for Gordon instead of having a strike, giving the Brentford defence to reorganise and clear the danger.

Pickford sends a long delivery down the left flank for Mykolenko, who finds McNeil with a short pass into the penalty area. The winger looks to play Gray through on goal but a miscommunication in the final-third allows the goalkeeper to claim the loose ball.

Brentford vs Everton

15:07 , admin

With little movement ahead of him, Tarkowski opts to hit a flat drive towards McNeil but the centre-back puts too much power on the delivery, giving Raya a goal-kick.

Brentford vs Everton

15:04 , admin

Mbuemo works a short-corner routine to Jensen, who immediately finds Hickey on the edge of the penalty area. The full-back sweeps a deep cross towards the back post but a brave Pickford gets through the crowd to punch it away.

Brentford make one change to the XI that lost 3-2 to Fulham, with Zanka replacing Pontus Jansson at centre-back.
