“They’ve had a good start. They got a fully-deserved point against Liverpool, and could maybe have got all three points, so it’s going to be unbelievably difficult. It’s always a great atmosphere when the two clubs meet”#BrentfordFC | #FULBRE pic.twitter.com/P18oFIeFGD

Fulham began their new season with a thrilling 2-2 draw against Liverpool on August 6, courtesy of Aleksandar Mitrovic’s brace. And then, a week later, the Cottagers’ overall performance against the Wolves, did not match their efforts against the Reds, but still managed to earn a point to extend their unbeaten run. Brentford, on the other hand, began their new campaign with a 2-2 draw against Leicester City before putting four goals past the Red Devils without reply. At the Gtech Community Stadium, Josh Dasilva, Mathias Jensen, Ben Mee and Bryan Mbeumo netted for the Bees to secure all three points.
