Fulham and Brentford are two teams who is currently in an unbeaten run in the contest right now. These two teams are continental chasers this season, which is why their unbeaten run helps them a lot. In the league table, there are only two places that separates these two teams. Fulham is currently at the seventh of the league table with 39 points, just two points below the sixth spot. On the other hand, Brentford is at the ninth spot with 35 points across their name. These two teams will meet on March 7, 2023, at 4:00 AM (GMT+8), with Brentford playing as hosts.
Across all competitions, these two teams only had 63 meetings, and only one of those meetings took place in the Premier League. Surprisingly, these two teams have won 23 games each, while drawing 17 matches. These last two teams met in August last year, where their matches ended in a 3-2 win by Fulham. However, the host can get confidence from the fact that they are doing well this season at home. In fact, they only suffered one defeat at home, winning three of their last four home games. Meanwhile, the visitors are also doing well in the league, keeping clean sheets in three of their last four outings.
Fulham
This team is currently in an unbeaten run in their last four league outings, where they won to two, while drawing two as well. It is just unfortunate that they cannot make it three wins in a row, as they had a 1-1 draw on their last match. They were held by Wolverhampton Wanderers in that match at home. During their last four games in the league, they were able to produce over 2.5 goals in each game. However, they only scored four goals in their last six games in the league. This squad is hoping for a win in this match, as they are just three points away from the fifth spot. With that being said, they are still hopeful for a spot in the top four, which is already a little far from their reach.
Due to his accumulated bookings, Palhinha cannot play in this match and in their next league match due to his suspensions. Tom Cairney on the other hand remains unavailable, due to his ankle injury. This is also the case for Layvin Kurzawa, and Neeskens Lebano both remain out due to their injuries too.
Brentford
Brentford is unbelievably in an unbeaten run since October 2022, but have played out consecutive draws. These two teams are currently at the ninth of the league table with 35 points. Although a win would give them an additional three points, the best thing they could achieve is be at the eighth of the league table. Now in the 11-unbeaten run in the league, this is a huge boost to their confidence. Their last league defeat is dated last September against the league leaders, Arsenal. Additionally, they can gain confidence from the fact that they won four of their last five home matches against Fulham. When it comes at home, they are doing well, having 24 goals at home from their 37.
This squad is luck that they only have one player in their recovery room, Thomas Strakosha. Frank Onyeka, and Pontus Jansson on the other hand can already be up for selection in this match.

Brentford (1.5)
