Fulham form and stats

Fulham's struggle is real here at Craven Cottage with only 4 points collected from 6 Premier League games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 1-1-4.

A draw after 90 minutes last time out for Fulham, who played 1-1 against Liverpool. That match was also played at this venue (Craven Cottage). Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Manchester City (0-2).

The manager S. Parker will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Newcastle United in only three days.

Brighton & Hove Albion form and stats

2 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses. That’s the product of Brighton & Hove Albion playing as the away team in the Premier League this season.

It might be tough going out on the road again for Brighton & Hove Albion, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 0-3 versus Leicester City (placed 3rd). The game before that, was lost at home, a 1-2 defeat against Southampton.

Brighton did not look prepared in the first half against Leicester City and lost the game during the first 45 minutes. They need to evaluate their pre-match routine before this one.

A quick return to home after this game, as Brighton are hosting Sheffield United in the Premier League only four days away.

Brighton has displayed an ability to score goals in away matches in the league this season, 9 goals from 6 games. Brighton & Hove Albion have conceded 11 goals in these games.

Head 2 Head

Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: four - one - five (Fulham wins - draws - Brighton & Hove Albion wins). As for goals, nine matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), one had two or less.
