Brentford prepare to entertain Chesterfield at Griffin Park on Tuesday evening, looking to continue an impressive record. The Bees are clearly on top, having won 17 and lost only 4 of the 33 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Griffin Park was just last season, in January 2008, the Bees carving out a narrow 2-1 victory in a League Two match.
