Recent respective form guides
Brentford's disastrous home run has meant they have managed only 2 draws from the last six matches. While Bees have scored 4, a worringly large 14 have been leaked at the other end.
Tranmere Rvs.'s away form is none too clever either, with two wins, two draws, and two defeats. These low-scoring games have seen just 4 goals scored and conceded.
Brentford are stuck down in the relegation zone of Coca-Cola League One with a return of just 17 points from their 20 games thus far. Tranmere Rvs.'s total of 35 points from their 20 games sees them sitting in the playoff places in Coca-Cola League One.
