Brentford manager Andy Scott is hoping the return of midfielder Kevin O'Connor after a hamstring injury can spark his side back into life.O'Connor returned as a late substitute in the 3-1 defeat at Morecambe on Saturday after nine matches out with a hamstring injury.

The Bees took just 10 points during O'Connor's absence to slump down the League Two table and boss Scott is pinning hopes of a resurgence on his return.

He said: "I am delighted to see Kevin back, it's obviously a huge plus point.

"We'll need to ease him back in. There is no sense in rushing him back only for him to get injured again.

"But we hope that he can make a difference."
