RESULT: Swindon Town 1 Brentford 0
Town scorer: Thompson 45
Town went toe-to-toe with Championship chasing Brentford and came out on top.
But the Robins still need Peterborough to have a major slip up if the season is to end with a play-off place.
Louis Thompson's second goal of the season settled the game on the stroke of half-time after Michael Smith had earlier missed a penalty when Pritchard was up-ended.
And despite pressure from the visitors early in the second-half, Town controlled the game after Brentford's Adam Forshaw was sent off with 25 minutes to go.
With four games to go, Town lie seven points off sixth place.
