Dean Smith’s side currently occupy 12th place in the Sky Bet Championship table, having only lost four of their 16 games thus far – leaving them nine points behind the Bluebirds.

The Bees’ have produced some very impressive displays of late, with victories over the likes of Leeds United and Preston North End. Their last defeat was a 3-1 loss at the hands of Norwich City in mid-September.

French forward Neal Maupay has been one of Brentford’s standout players so far in this campaign, scoring six goals in the 19 league and cup appearances he has made.

Ollie Watkins is another who has hit the ground running since his move to the Championship in the summer. Just 21 years of age, the former Exeter City forward has netted six goals in 16 games.

It's going to be a tough game but we have to be aiming to win all our home games if we're going to mount a serious challenge.

We'll need to be right at it from the start and not take our foot off the pedal for the full 90 minutes. If we do that in the way we did at home to Villa, Leeds and Ipswich I'm confident we'll win.

If we play like we did against Sheff Wednesday, Millwall or Derby however it could be a difficult afternoon.
