PRE-MATCH | TOM HUTTON

"We reflect on the performance against Bristol City quite positively. There were lots of good moments in the performance in terms of how we controlled the game. We came up against a strong Bristol City team and I thought in most areas we dominated. We couldn't quite create the goal to get ourselves ahead, but we equalised in the second half and we were on top for long periods. We needed to try and get that second goal to turn it in our favour but it never came. We were slightly disappointed with the second goal we conceded, but in the main, largely positive.

"The game against Brentford will be an interesting one but a challenging one from a tactical perspective. We did have two really challenging games against them last season and it is one of the fixtures we look forward to in the league. We're very aware of what their strengths are and we will respect them, but we also have to make the game about us and make sure we deliver a performance that we can be proud of."

RECENT RESULTS

The young Bluebirds head into this game off the back of a 2-1 defeat away to Bristol City last weekend.

After Louie Derrick put the Robins ahead in the first half from the penalty spot, City equalised in the second half with a spot kick of their own; Mannie Barton the one to convert from 12-yards. But the home side won the match with 20 minutes to go with a Luke Skinner header.

The result leaves Tom Hutton’s side fifth in the PDL South. Saturday’s opponents Brentford currently find themselves in seventh.
