Match facts
Brentford are unbeaten in their past nine home matches against Leeds in all competitions (W6 D3 L0) since a 1-2 defeat in August 1950.
Leeds have scored just seven goals in their past 11 league matches against Brentford (W2 D5 L4).
Six of Brentford's past eight league games on Easter Monday have finished level (W1 D6 L1), though the Bees did win their fixture on this day last season (1-0 at Bristol City).
Leeds have lost nine of their past 10 league matches on Easter Monday (W1 D0 L9), losing each of the last six in a row.
Brentford have won nine of their past 12 home games in all competitions (W9 D2 L1).
Leeds have won 11 away league matches this season, only winning more in three previous campaigns - 12 wins in 1963-64, 1973-74 and 2007-08.
So we're only behind the Blunts on goal difference so we can still do it, starting with this game, all we need is the Right Leeds United to turn up, we can beat anybody on our day and hopefully Monday Will be Our Day.
Desperately trying to be upbeat about this so i'm going for 1-2 with Pablo and Jansson getting our goals
Over to You and ffs try and be a wee bit optimistic ..............................................Predictions etc, usual stuff .......
Come Onnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn Leeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeds!!!

Season is over. Not watching any more of it. Norwich and SU spent in Jan, we didn't. That's the difference . Leeds will be lucky to not he relegated next season to L1

Need to rest every player who is not 100% fit for last two games. Play U23s if necessary.

Pain and upset, not glory hunting. Just cant take it anymore this year. We've had the best chance in years to go up and we've squandered it so pathetically.

I understand how Kernow feels. I feel absolutely numb. After all the hope, and being top at Christmas, I really did believe this was finally our year. To bottle it like they have is just so demoralising. 2 games ago we thought we’d finally got in front of SU and we were definitely going up automatically and now we’re just all in shock and disbelief. The Wigan game was the killer - did the players believe it was a given that they’d win that game? Is that why they didn’t play as we know they can? Now we all have to face the fact that we are in the play-offs, and probably won’t progress in them because not one Leeds player can score a goal!!! Brentford’s Maupay has scored something like 27 goals. Our top scorer Roofe has 14 and hasn’t scored for months! I don’t know if I can stomach another season in the Championship - I need to go for counselling to rid me of this Leeds United addiction.

Join the queue, Maidin, like you I am wrecked. I think back to my worst moments as a Leeds fan and this actually eclipses all of them. We will be talking about Wigan in 20 years, unless these players can somehow shake off their despair, play like a team again, and get us out of this league. They looked shattered yesterday, but our game against Villa is an opportunity to restore some confidence. But how you do that after such a devastating weekend is another matter.
Where can we get hold of 37,000 counsellors at short notice?
