Recent respective form guides

Brentford's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While Bees have scored 6, a worringly large 14 have been leaked at the other end.

Rotherham U.'s away form is none too clever either, collecting 2 wins and 3 draws from the last six. These low-scoring games have seen just 5 goals scored and conceded.

Brentford find themselves struggling down in 17th position in the league having picked up 11 points from their 10 matches. Rotherham U.'s 14 points from 10 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 10th position.
