Barnsley had their first goal-less draw since April, a run of 27 Championship matches inbetween without one.
That 0-0 was against Cardiff at Oakwell, meaning this is the first 0-0 away from home since the 11th February at Reading.
A Barnsley game was goal-less at half time for the first time in five outings.
It is only the fourth time this season in the Championship that a Barnsley game has not seen a first half goal, and this was the first time The Reds have not gone on to lose.
It was only the second time a Barnsley away league game had been goal-less at the break this season - the other being the 2-1 defeat at Wolves in September when all three goals came in the final 10 minutes and two were scored in injury time.
It was the first time in six Barnsley/Brentford clashes that the scoreline was goal-less at half time, the last occasion, in 2004, the match also finished 0-0.
Barnsley have now scored only ONE goal in thieir last six matches.
They kept their first away clean sheet of the season, it is their first shut-out on the road in 19, since the 2-0 win at Blackburn in April.
It is the first time ever that Barnsley have kept successive clean sheets at Griffin Park.
The Reds have now won only one of their last nine clashes with the Bees (D5 L3
This was the only goal-less Championship game this weekend - just as when Barnsley last drew 0-0 on the road, at Reading in February it was the only goal-less Championship game that weekend.
When Barnsley travelled to Griffin Park last season they had lost five of their last six league matches (D1) - this weekend they also made that journey on the back of five successive defeats, in a run of six without a win (D1)
Brentford are now unbeaten in their last ten league games at Griffin Park, although seven have ended level.
Barnsley are only the second team to stop Brentford scoring at home this season - the other being league leaders Wolves.
Brad Potts was an unused substitute for this game, ending a run of 10 successive games in which he had appeared.
Barnsley had only 36% possession in this game, their lowest amount in a 2017-2018 Championship match, and their lowest, remarkably since their last away goal-less draw - they had 32% at Reading.
Brentford attempted 22 shots in the game, the joint most by a Barnsley opponent this season - Sheffield Wednesday also had 22.
Barnsley managed only six shots, their lowest amount this season, and lowest amount since the 2-0 defeat at Fulham on the 14th January when they also had only six.
