• Fulham won their first Premier League game last weekend

• Brentford made it through to the fourth round of the EFL Cup in midweek

• Recommended bet: Fulham to win and both teams to score

Fulham recorded their first league victory of the season against Leeds United last week courtesy of a last-gasp own goal by Gabriel Gudmundsson.

In contrast, Brentford have not won in the Premier League since a 1-0 victory over Aston Villa in August.

However, they drew against Chelsea last week before piling more misery on Aston Villa by prevailing on penalties in the third round of the EFL Cup in midweek.

Team News

Cottagers head coach Marco Silva has no injury problems to contend with heading into this clash. This means he could make a few changes, notably starting summer signing Kevin, who impressed as a substitute last time out.

Bees boss Keith Andrews rested Jordan Henderson, Igor Thiago and Ethan Pinnock against Villa, but the trio are expected to play some part of the clash against the Cottagers.

Kristoffer Ajer was taken off as a precaution in midweek, but he to is available for selection. The only two absentees are Gustavo Nunes and Paris Maghoma.

The stats

The two clashes between these two sides last season were high-scoring affairs.

At the Gtech Community Stadium, Fulham won 3-2, while earlier in the season the Cottagers claimed a 2-1 victory over the Bees.

Indeed, Brentford have not won this fixture since a 3-0 win back in August 2023.

Across the previous nine matches between these two teams since 2020, only once has there been fewer than three goals. That was a 0-0 draw during the 2023/24 campaign.

During that run, both teams have scored in five of the nine fixtures. As such, goals are always likely in this fixture and expect more of the same this weekend.

The home side have scored just three times in the Premier League, conceding four times in the process.

Andrews' men have scored more goals (five), but they have also conceded more (seven) and this tie certainly promises goals.

Igor Thiago has already scored twice in the top-flight this season and he will be fit and raring to go after being rested in midweek.

Fulham's leading scorers in the league are Rodrigo Muniz and Emile Smith Rowe, who have found the back of the net once apiece.

Prediction

The Bees showed great resilience against Chelsea last time out, scoring a late equaliser courtesy of Fabio Carvalho to secure a point at home to the Blues.

Silva stated that his team were "a little bit fortunate" to nick all three points against Leeds last weekend, but it was an overdue league win for his side.

Given that confidence boost, the Cottagers will be looking to make it back-to-back Premier League wins for the first time since February.

The visitors will be well organised, but the home side should just have too much for them on Saturday evening.
