Brentford boss Thomas Frank says they must be wary of Southampton set-piece specialist James Ward-Prowse tonight.
The 28-year-old, who is also the Saints' captain, has six goals and two assists this campaign, and sits sixth in the division for key passes (2.2 per 90).
And, speaking at his pre-match press conference, Frank insisted that the England international is someone his team 'need to close down', as well as highlighting some other opposition players he is wary of.
"Over the last couple of seasons, it's been Ward-Prowse. He's definitely the man we need to close down," said Frank.
"We know he's good on set-pieces, direct free-kicks, but also his crosses, balls in behind, and his finishing skills.
"I think [Kamaldeen] Sulemana has done very well, I know him a bit from the Danish Superliga. I think he was good.
"And it always seems like [Che] Adams... he is a good striker and, with a bit rhythm and if he continues to play, he's a strong option."
