Huddersfield Town will probably be pleased to draw a veil over a Championship campaign which has so far brought only 13 victories in 45 matches.
A run of one win in seven has put the brakes on hopes of climbing the table.
Now they host a Brentford side finishing the season like a train after winning six and drawing one of their last eight.
Despite losing 4-2 at Griffin Park just before Christmas, bookies believe David Wagner’s side will win.
Ladbrokes chalk 6/5 about a Town success while the draw is priced at an eye-catching 5/2 by Boylesports.
Cautious punters might be persuaded by the 9/1 offered by Skybet against the match finishing 0-0, while Ladbrokes post 6/1 against a 1-1 outcome.
In other markets, Paddy Power quote 2/1 about Town keeping a clean sheet and Stan James post 11/2 on both halves finishing in stalemate.
Betfred’s tempting 13/2 for Town to secure a narrow 1-0 win, and Betway’s 8/1 chalked about a 2-1 home victory, have been reasonably well backed, although perhaps as much in hope as expectation.
It follows that bet365’s 10/3, offered against the score draw, looks the better bet in a contest where the protagonists look likely to cancel each other out.

Paddy Power’s 10/11 for the last goal to arrive after the 75th minute holds plenty of appeal, as does the 8/1 offered by bet365 against Town scoring a penalty.
Elsewhere, Stan James chalk 4/5 about both teams scoring and backers anticipating a goalfest might be persuaded by Coral’s 14/1 for it to finish 2-2.
