City Look For Seventh Win At Brentford

Last updated : 16 October 2012 By Covsupport News Service

Tuesday will see the 41st meeting of Brentford and Coventry City.

The Sky Blues have won 17 , drawn 10 and lost 13 of those matches, scoring 65 goals to Brentford's 39.

The last time the sides met was on July 28th 2001 when City, with John Hartson making his last ever Coventry appearance before he joined Celtic, drew 0-0 in a pre-season game.

However, for a meeting in the league, you have to go back to 1963 when the sides drew 2-2 at Highfield Road on Feb 15th 1964 for a Third Division game. That season, on October 5th, City won 3-2, which was one of six wins at Griffin Park.

City's record win at Brentford was a 4-1 win in 1947 but their record defeat was a 7-3 loss in October 1926.
