History of the Brentford v Chesterfield fixture

Chesterfield face a trip to Brentford at Griffin Park on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Spireites will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them lose 15 and win only 4 of the 29 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in April 2004, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1 - 1 final scoreline in a League Division Two match.
