- Brentford is predicted to be a -0.5-goal home favorite against Fulham.
- Fulham has won each of its last four EPL away matches following a league loss.
- My Brentford vs. Fulham prediction is for Brentford to score a first-half goal.
Brentford looks to continue its strong form with a home meeting against Fulham on Sunday.ย
The Bees earned a 1-0 road win over Ipswich Town on Saturday, their fourth win in a row. In fact, not since April 2 against Newcastle has Brentford dropped all three points.ย
Fulham took a 1-0 lead against Everton but lost 3-1 at home. That marks the fourth loss in Fulhamโs last five games, with the Irons sitting 11th in the table.ย
Check out the Premier League odds and my Brentford vs. Fulham prediction.ย

Fulham vs Brentford: Prediction
Based on Fulhamโs weak defensive record away from home, my Brentford vs Fulham prediction is Brentford 1st Half Over 0.5 (-150)
For whatever reason, Fulham produced consistent slow starts away from home.ย
Marco Silvaโs side conceded a first-half goal in six straight away from home. In Fulhamโs last nine matches on the road, theyโve conceded in the opening half eight times.ย
The lone success over that span? At Leicester City, one of the worst attacks in the league.ย
That trend represents a stark contrast from the early goings away from home. In Fulhamโs first 10 visits this season, they conceded a first-half goal only four times.ย
The reverse is true of Brentford, who have cashed this market only three times in their previous eight at home and four times in their previous 10.ย
However, sample Brentfordโs first eight home matches of the league season and bettors will find they scored a first-half goal in all eight matches.ย
Plus, Brentford managed the first goal in their visit to Craven Cottage earlier this season and have produced strong underlying metrics in the opening half.ย
The Bees scored a first-half goal in four straight games and 22 of 36 overall.ย
In those last four opening halves, Brentford created 4.12 post-shot expected goals. Each of those halves saw the Bees create at least 0.94 post-shot xG in the first half.ย
With more meaning associated in this match for Brentford, Iโll back the Bees to find an early goal as home favorites.ย
