Premier League side Brentford are coming off a heartbreaking 2:2 draw at Nottingham Forest; despite having the lead at the 90 minute mark, Thomas Frank’s men conceded an own goal in the 96th minute.

The Bees have struggled for wins in recent weeks; they are winless in their last four matches, with one win in their last eight games.

Furthermore, Brentford knocked out League Two side Colchester United in the previous round of this tournament; they will go up against another League Two outfit in Gillingham today.

Thomas Frank’s men will hope to get back to winning ways, and they’ll fancy their chances against this Gillingham side.

Just like Brentford, Gillingham played out a draw in their previous match; they drew level with Fylde in their FA Cup fixture, setting up a return leg next week.

Like Brentford, Gillingham have not been able to win games recently; they are without a win in their last five matches, with three draws and two losses.

On top of that, Gillingham have had some difficulty finding the back of the net; as they scored just once in their last three matches.

Gillingham played in the first two rounds of this tournament; they faced Wimbledon and Exeter City, defeating both teams.

Compared to these teams however, Brentford will be a much bigger fish to fry.

The Bees play in the Premier League, three tiers above Gillingham.

Gillingham scored just once in their last three matches; as a result of their lack of goals, most of Gillingham’s matches have been on the low-scoring side.

In fact, Neil Harris’s men have seen less than three goals scored in all of their last seven matches.

In like manner, Brentford have not been very consistent when it comes to scoring goals; as they blanked in four of their last eight matches.

Considering three of Brentford’s last five games went below the 2.5 goal mark, we shouldn’t expect a lot of goals here.
