MATCH OF THE DAQ previews Brentford v Yeovil (League One Play-Off Final, K.O 13.30, Sky Sports 1)
It’s difficult to see why Brentford are favourites today as their recent record against the Glovers is really poor. They’ve lost five of the last six meetings and on the last two occasions Yeovil have hit three past them, the latest without reply.

PREVIEW
Yeovil caused a minor surprise by beating Sheffield United in their play-off semi-final but there was little fluke about it and it continued their strong end of season form. Brentford recovered from the debacle at Doncaster on the final day of the season – when they missed a last-minute penalty (that would have seen them earn automatic promotion), and then had to watch as Rovers broke and scored with basically the last kick of the game – to see off Swindon on penalties.
But it’s difficult to see why Brentford are favourites today as their recent record against the Glovers is really poor. They’ve lost five of the last six meetings and on the last two occasions Yeovil have hit three past them, the latest without reply.
Yeovil only finished two points behind Brentford in the league and had a really good away record, suggesting the trip to Wembley won’t be a problem for them.
The Bees have had a long hard season taking in a good FA Cup run and you just wonder how much they have left in the tank. On paper it looks a close match but Yeovil have to be the value at around 3.6 on BETDAQ.
RECOMMENDATION: (1-10 points)
