PREMIER LEAGUE new boys Fulham will be entertaining London rivals Brentford who are fresh from thumping Manchester United last weekend.
The Cottagers are yet to lose in their opening two fixtures on their return to English top-flight football.
Fulham held Liverpool to a draw on the first game of the season
Brentford annihilated Manchester United 4-0 last weekend
Which includes holding Liverpool to a draw on the first day of the season.
However, the Bees have already showed signs of resilience when they rescued themselves a point at the King Power Stadium after being two goals down.
And Thomas Frank’s side followed that up with an emphatic victory 4-0 over Manchester United on Saturday.
What time does Fulham vs Brentford kick off?
- Fulham will roll out the red carpet for Brentford on Saturday, August 20.
- It is scheduled to kick off at 3pm UK time.
- Craven Cottage in West London is the allocated arena for this match and it can hold around 25,700 spectators.
- Brentford thumped Fulham the last time these two clubs met in a 2020/21 League Cup fixture.
Is Fulham vs Brentford on TV and can I live stream it?
- Sadly, Fulham vs Brentford will NOT be broadcasted live on television in the UK.
- This is due to the TV football black out law in the UK which restricts games from being shown live between 2:45pm and 5:15pm.
- However fans in the US can head to Peacock to stream the entire action.
Team news
Marco Silva will be hoping that Andreas Pereira and Bobby Decordova-Reid can shake off their minor injuries that they picked up in the 0-0 draw against Wolves.
Especially as summer signing Manor Solomon and midfielder Harry Wilson are already side-lined.
Elsewhere, the Brentford trio of Sergio Canos, Ethan Pinnock and Kristoffer Ajer are all expected to remain out of this clash with Fulham.
However, Bees boss Thomas Frank is expected to go with the exact same side who dominated Manchester United last weekend.
