THE PREDICTION
Brentford come into this match off the back of a memorable 7-2 thumping of the Championship’s bottom placed side Wycombe at the weekend. The Bees are now unbeaten in an unbelievable 18 league matches and sit just two points shy of the automatic promotion places. Therefore, it looks a tall order for Bristol City to get anything from this match considering that the Robins have lost their last five Championship games on the road. Dean Holden’s side have to travel away from home for the second time in five days which may take its toll on the Bristol City players both physically and mentally compared to Brentford, who are playing their second successive home game. That combined with the Bees’ unstoppable recent form would make it a huge surprise if they were not to pick up three points in this contest.
