Recent respective form guides

Brentford's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While Bees have scored 9, a worringly large 15 have been leaked at the other end.

Barnet's away form is none too clever either, accumulating just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While the Bees have hit 5 goals, 14 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Brentford see themselves just below half way in the Coca-Cola League Two, showing a record of 2 points from their 2 games played so far, Barnet are currently lying in 20th place in Coca-Cola League Two having mustered a points tally of 1 from their 2 matches played.
