History of the Cheltenham Town v Brentford fixture

Cheltenham T. prepare to entertain Brentford at Whaddon Road on Friday evening, aiming to preserve their record of never having lost at home to the visitors. The Robins have drawn both of the previous games against their opponents, however.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Whaddon Road was just last season, in August 2005, with Cheltenham T. annihilating their visitors 5-0 in a League Cup match.

Recent respective form guides

Cheltenham Town's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While Robins have scored 4, a worringly large 10 have been leaked at the other end.

The away form of Brentford is pretty dire, managing a paltry 2 draws from the last six matches. Bees have conceded 10 goals in these games, and only hit 2 in reply.

Cheltenham T. find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 18 games have yielded only 15 points. Brentford are stuck down in the relegation zone of Coca-Cola League One with a return of just 17 points from their 18 games thus far.
