History of the Brentford v Swansea City fixture

Swansea City face a trip to Brentford at Griffin Park on Tuesday evening, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Swans will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them lose 21 and win only 7 of the 38 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in May 2006, as the visitors ran out cosy 0 - 2 winners in a Football League Play-Offs (Lvl 3) match.
