Fulham will entertain local rivals Brentford at Craven Cottage in the Premier League on Saturday.
Both teams have had unbeaten starts to their league campaign. The hosts have played back-to-back draws, while Brentford have secured a win and a draw in their two games.
Fulham's last outing ended in a goalless draw against Wolverhampton Wanderers after they had held Liverpool to a 2-2 draw in their season opener. Brentford, meanwhile, also kicked off their season with a 2-2 draw away at Leicester City. In their next outing, they secured a memorable 4-0 win over Manchester United, with all four goals scored in the first 35 minutes.
This will be the first meeting between Fulham and Brenford in the Premier League, so both teams will look to come out on top to take the bragging rights.

Fulham vs Brentford Prediction
Brentford have a better record in their recent meetings with Fulham and also head into the game in better form. The Cottagers are winless in their last 24 Premier League games against London-based rivals, so despite their home advantage, they might fall short here.
The visitors have scored a joint-high six league goals this season and should be able to produce another prolific display to take home all three points.
Prediction: Fulham 1-2 Brentford.
