Brentford face a trip to Swindon Town at County Ground on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Bees will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them lose 19 and win only 7 of the 35 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides was just last season, in December 2002, the Robins carving out a narrow 2 - 1 victory in a League Division Two match.
