Brentford travelled for their previous game, a trip to Cardiff City that ended 2-2. A defeat was the result before that one, 1-2 away at Luton Town.

Sheffield Wednesday form and stats

The story so far for the visiting team on their Championship travels is 6 wins, 4 draws and 9 defeats.

This game can not go any worse than the last one, a FA Cup home defeat versus Manchester City with 0-1 on the scoreboard. A 1-3 loss hosting Derby County before that.

It's a bit worrying for Sheffield Wednesday that their goalkeeper Joe Wildsmith made eight saves in the Manchester City game last time out, but still couldn''t prevent the loss.

Sheffield Wednesday has displayed an ability to score goals in away matches in the league this season, 30 goals from 19 games. 28 goals have been conceded by Sheffield Wednesday in these games.
