Bet of the day.

Brentford vs Fulham

Preview

Day 26 of the 2022–2023 Premier League season will conclude with today’s London derby between Brentford and Fulham.

Although the Bees are anxious to maintain their top-ten ranking, the game will be anything but easy for the home team.

While the Cottagers want to qualify for the Europa League, defeating Brentford on the road is a much harder task.

Fact Check

Brentford are unbeaten in their previous 10 games in the Premier League.

Under 2.5 goals have been scored in Fulham’s previous 6 matches in the Premier League.

Brentford will take advantage of their decent home record.

While they have drawn three of their past four games, Brentford currently has the longest active unbeaten streak in the Premier League (11 games).

The Bees are one of only six Premier League teams this season to have suffered just one home loss.

Ivan Toney, the team’s leading scorer, should preserve his starting position up front despite failing to score in a 1-1 draw with Crystal Palace.

Fulham proves tough to beat away from home.

Fulham enters this match having defeated fellow Premier League team, Leeds 2-0 to go to the FA Cup quarterfinals.

Only Arsenal (10), Manchester City (7), and Manchester United (6) have won more away games at this level this season than the Cottagers, who are presently unbeaten in their previous four league games (5).

Head-to-head comparison

Brentford have been able to keep a clean sheet in their previous three encounters against Fulham at home across all competitions.

Both teams have produced fewer than four goals in 5 of their last 6 meetings.

Brentford’s team news

For this game, Pontus Jansson and Frank Onyeka might rejoin the matchday squad, but they are unlikely to start.

Thomas Strakosha might make a comeback for this game, but it will need to be determined first.

Ivan Toney admitted to breaking FA betting laws, but as of this writing, no punishment had been meted out.

Fulham’s team news

Neeskens Kebano’s Achilles injury keeps him out of action.

Tom Cairney’s ailment is also keeping him out of action.

A knee ailment has rendered Layvin Kurzawa ineligible while João Palhinha will miss this game due to an accumulation of yellow cards.

Expert’s opinion

Both teams have been playing well lately and all season long, but Joao Palhinha’s absence for Fulham may just give Brentford the advantage in this match.

The midfielder has only missed one league game this year—which Fulham lost 4-1 to Newcastle—and one League Cup match—which Fulham lost 2-0 to Crawley.

Missing this one again will give Brentford an edge.
