History of the Brentford v Oldham Athletic fixture

Brentford prepare to entertain Oldham Athletic at Griffin Park on Monday evening, aiming to preserve their record of never having lost at home to the visitors. The Bees have drawn 9 of the 16 contests however.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Griffin Park was just last season, in August 2002, when they played out a goalless draw in a League Division Two match.

Its been a distinctly poor show from Brentford at home in recent games, and, though I cannot see a run starting here, I do think the Bees will at least gain a draw. Score draw
