Fulham vs Brentford Bet Builder Tips, Stats, Best Bets, Predictions

Thiago’s first season with the Bees was hampered by injuries but the Brazilian striker has impressed in the early stages of the 2025/26 campaign.

However, we’re going to be focussing on the physical side of Thiago’s game, rather than his goalscoring ability, as the 24-year-old has committed more fouls this season than any of his teammates.

Thiago has wracked up 11 fouls in 4 appearances so far this season, making for an average of 2.75 fouls committed per game. The former Club Brugge striker likes to put himself about, letting the opposition defenders know he is there, but often steps over the line and gives away free kicks.

Fulham teenager, Joshua King, has made a very bright start to the season and looks like developing into an excellent player.

The 18-year-old midfielder has taken 4 shots in 4 Premier League appearances this season but is still searching for his first goal for the club. King heads into this weekend’s clash with Brentford boasting a shots on target ratio of 75%.

With the young Fulham star averaging 1.33 shots per 90 minutes in the league this season, as well as averaging 1.00 shots on target per 90 minutes, you can see why we’ve backed King to hit the target at least once this weekend.

Brentford’s Dango Outtara has featured in 3 of the 4 league games this season, chipping in with 1 goal.

The Bacuna Faso international has managed to take 3 shots so far this season, all of which have hit the target. The 23-year-old is obviously sitting on a 100% shot accuracy right now and is averaging 1.41 shots on target per 90 minutes in the Premier League.

We’re expecting Outtara to play some part against Fulham this weekend, and have backed the former Bournemouth players, who averaged 0.90 shots on target per 90 minutes for the Cherries last season, to hit the target at least once at Craven Cottage.

Joachim Andersen has been an ever-present in the Fulham backline this season, and we expect the Danish international to feature once again against Brentford on Saturday.

Andersen has committed 6 fouls so far this season for the Cottagers, which makes for an average of 1.50 fouls per appearance. Only Sander Berge (8) and Sasa Lukic (15) have committed more fouls for Fulham this season than Andersen.

Last season, Andersen played 29 times for Fulham in the Premier League, all starts, and the centre-back committed a total of 18 fouls. The 29-year-old is certainly on course to commit more fouls this season, and we’ve backed him to commit at least 1 against Brentford this weekend.
