BRENTFORD - ROTHERHAM UNITED


The two bottom clubs in Division 1 meet at the " Theatre of Dreams", otherwise known as Griffin Park.


The Bees have picked up a lot since the transfer window, without having a great deal of luck. Two debatable penalty decisions, costing them at least 3 points in their last two starts. However, the spirit at the club is upbeat and the players seem to genuinely, be looking forward to the match today.


They have the very rare luxury, of an almost fully fit squad to choose from and everyone will be able to play in their natural position. They may be further boosted by the inclusion of striker Lloyd Owusu, for the first time in almost one year.


The Millers have won only 2 games in 20 starts, since late October, have kept just one clean sheet in 23 matches , conceding 3 or more in 8. Which means that every third time they take to the pitch, they are giving up at least 3 goals, last week , at home to Port Vale, this took all of 19 minutes !


The draw here has absolutely no value to either side. Both are forced to go for it and under the circumstances the Bees look good value, at the odds on offer.


4 points Brentford -1/2 ball 2.06 Pinnacle.


Good Luck.
