Brighton & HA pack their bags to visit Brentford at Griffin Park on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Seagulls will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them ending up on the losing side in more than half of the games played between the two.
The previous match played between the two at Griffin Park was more than three years back, in October 2003, as they swept to an impressive 4 - 0 win in a League Division Two match.
