Recent respective form guides

Brentford's disastrous home run has meant they have managed only 2 draws from the last six matches. While Bees have scored 4, a worringly large 16 have been leaked at the other end.

Chesterfield's away form is none too clever either, accumulating just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While the Spireites have hit 4 goals, 7 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Brentford find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 24 games have yielded only 18 points. Chesterfield see themselves just below half way in the Coca-Cola League One, showing a record of 28 points from their 24 games played so far,
