Kenny Jackett relishing Brentford test

Wolverhampton Wanderers head coach Kenny Jackett reveals that he is relishing taking his side to play in-form Brentford on Saturday afternoon.

Wolverhampton Wanderers head coach Kenny Jackett believes that Saturday's fixture with Brentford will be a "terrific game" as the Molineux outfit look to overtake the Bees at the top of the League One table.

Leaders Brentford hold a two-point advantage over Wolves, who sit in third position, and Jackett has revealed that he is relishing the chance to travel to Griffin Park to take on a side that haven't lost in the league since October.

The 52-year-old told the Express & Star: "Saturday will be a terrific game, and the players should look forward to it. It is a challenge to go to play Brentford, who are on a 19-game unbeaten run and have won 16 of those games.

"That's a fantastic run and the transition of managers has been smooth and maybe even accelerated. It's a match between two teams at the top of the table and these are the games that we are all in football for."

The reverse fixture between the two sides ended goalless at Molineux in November.
