There is a good game between Sheffield and Brentford, as they face two fairly strong teams. Sheffield seems to be more ready for a game like this given its compact defensiveness and the extra boost it can get from supporter support. Aiming for a win or a draw should not cause so many difficulties.
Sheffield are two points off the automatic promotion spot; they would want to get an automatic slot to the Premier League so they can avoid the stress that comes with taking part in the playoffs. They have been on a good run lately and will be outright favorites going into this game. Sheffield have not conceded a goal in their last five matches; they are unbeaten in eight ahead of this game and in the last five matches, they have won four. They have not been scoring a lot, but Sheffield have been doing just enough defensively, to win matches and with five straight wins at home, no goals conceded and 10 scored, they will for sure take the game to Brentford. In their last game, Brentford beat promotion contenders MIddlesbrough 2 – 1, making it a second straight win in the Championship after the previous 3 – 0 triumph over QPR, and four wins in five Championship matches. With that run, Sheffield will have to approach them with great caution. Brentford have suffered just two losses in their last 13 Championship games but they have not been the best side to bank on when playing away from home. They have managed just two wins in their last 19 Championship matches away from home. In the previous five meetings, Sheffield have managed two wins and Brentford one, with the other two ending in draws. The two sides have met 11 times in total, and Sheffield have won five while Brentford have three wins.
