Pre Match Quotes
Martin Allen - "It's only half-time - we will carry on doing what has got us here in the first place."
"We are the only team in the country that have got in the play-offs with a negative goal difference.
"I'm not going to put five forwards on the pitch. We've had 23 clean sheets this season, so nothing will change."
Paul Sturrock - "There is pressure on Brentford to get themselves back in the game."
"We can do the sitting and catching on the break, rather than having to be pushing to get ourselves some goals.
"They're a big side and they will be getting themselves in the box. It'll be about winning headers and second balls and wearing your heart on your sleeve."
Extra Match Stats
Thurday's game was the first ever Sheffield Wednesday playoff game
The Owls have won one and drawn four of their last five League and League Cup visits to Griffin Park. They've lost only one of eight matches there in all competitions, and scored three goals in each of the last two trips to the Middlesex venue.
Wednesday slipped from third in mid-March to end the regular season two places and 14 points outside automatic promotion, with one win from nine outings. It's two months since they chalked up back-to-back victories.
