History of the Chesterfield v Brentford fixture

Brentford face a trip to Chesterfield at Recreation Ground on Saturday afternoon, hoping to improve upon an average previous return from this fixture. Of the 34 games played, Bees have recorded 12 wins, and Chesterfield have come away with 15 victories.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in February 2008, the Spireites carving out a narrow 1 - 0 victory in a League Two match.

FootyMad's prediction ...

Not a lot has been going right generally for Brentford on their travels as of late, but I can certainly see them gleaning a point from their game against Chesterfield. No-score draw
