History of the Brentford v Yeovil Town fixture

Brentford play host to Yeovil Town at Griffin Park on Tuesday evening, aiming to preserve their record of never having lost at home to the visitors. The Bees have drawn both of the previous games against their opponents, however.

The last time the two teams met at Brentford was well over fifteen years ago, back in November 1990, with Brentford annihilating their visitors 5-0 in a F.A. Cup match.
