History of the Swansea City v Brentford fixture

Swansea City prepare to entertain Brentford at Liberty Stadium on Monday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Swans are clearly on top, having won 20 and lost only 7 of the 39 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Liberty Stadium was less than a year ago, in May 2006, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1-1 final scoreline in a Football League Play-Offs (Lvl 3) match.
