[Garawa]

Brentford are unbeaten in 15 league matches and have won an impressive 13 of them (including their last 8 at home).

2nd placed Brentford dropped their first points under Mark Warburton at the weekend, securing a total of 90.5% of the league points from his 7 games in charge.
Before Uwe Rosler left Brentford they were sitting 4th having secured 64.9% of the league points available.

The head to head record between the sides in the away tie stands at 13 Gills wins, 18 Bees wins and there have been 12 draws.

The last match here ended in a 4-0 defeat for the Gills in February 2010. There had been 3 draws in the 3 away ties before it.

Brentford have managed 11 league clean sheets this season. Just 1 has come in the last 5 games but they achieved 7 from 8 beforehand.

Brentford's last game at Griffin Park was a 2-0 win against Port Vale, the first time in 5 attempts they had beaten a promoted side from League 2 this season.
2 of their 4 league defeats have come at the hands of last season's League 2 sides: 0-1 home to Rotherham and 4-0 away to Bradford.

Bees top scorer Clayton Donaldson has 14 goals this season, scoring a goal from every 2.71 shots on target. Cody McDonald scores a goal from every 2.66 shots on target.

The last 20 mins of games are good periods for the hosts but poor for the visitors. Between the 71 and 90th minutes, Brentford have scored 17 and conceded 4 whilst the Gills have scored 6 and conceded 14.

The Bees have scored 3 or more goals on 9 occasions in the league this season (6 times at home), a total only bettered by Coventry City.

It has been 10 league games since both the Gills have earned an away draw and Brentford earned a home draw.

Brentford have used 6 more players than the Gills this season and 3 more than the amount they used in the whole of last season.
