Latest Fulham vs Brentford football commentary

After three opening rounds without a win, Fulham finally took all 3 points in a lucky way when they beat newcomer Leeds United last weekend.

The match at Craven Cottage was quite dull and seemed to end in a draw, but in the final minutes, Gabriel Gudmundsson headed the ball into his own net, giving coach Marco Silva and his team a valuable 1-0 victory.

Silva admitted his side were “a bit lucky” to win thanks to an own goal, but he was also pleased with the determination of his players to “go for the goal” in the second half. The Portuguese coach also stressed that Fulham need to “make a habit of keeping clean sheets”, after keeping their first clean sheet of the season against Leeds.

In fact, Fulham and Arsenal are the only two teams yet to concede a goal from open play in the Premier League this season. Their four goals have all come from corners (2) or penalties (2). Conversely, two-thirds of Fulham's goals have come from set pieces.

Currently 11th in the table, Fulham host Brentford this weekend. They won both meetings last season and are aiming to win three consecutive games against the Bees for the first time since 1928-29.

Manager Keith Andrews started his tenure with mixed results, but Brentford have generally performed better than expected after a drastic change in the squad over the summer.

Despite losing both away games this season, Brentford have picked up four points from their two home games, with Fabio Carvalho scoring a 93rd-minute equaliser against Chelsea last week, following a 1-0 win over Aston Villa.

In midweek, they went on to beat Aston Villa in the League Cup on penalties (1-1 after 90 minutes, 4-2 on penalties), with Andrews saying the result showed his players were “maturing as a team”.

However, the upcoming trip to Fulham is a big test. Brentford have lost two of their last three Premier League visits to Craven Cottage (W1), more than in their previous 15 combined (W6 D8 L1). They are also in danger of losing back-to-back away games to Fulham for the first time since 1954.

However, Brentford can take confidence from the statistics: Fulham have lost five of their last seven Premier League London derbies, having previously gone 10 games unbeaten against their city rivals.
