Fulham meet Brentford at Craven Cottage in a West-London derby.
Victory would see Fulham climb to ninth, whilst Brentford will go ninth with a win unless can win by a three-goal margin or more which would put them eighth.

Prediction
Having battled to a deserved 1-1 draw at Everton, Fulham just need to cut out their defensive errors which have cost them lately because their attack otherwise has been solid coming into this derby clash.
Brentford meanwhile were simply more clinical than Ipswich in their rollercoaster epic, but their defence was pretty poor especially when hit on the counter-attack which is a worry given Fulham’s quality out wide this season.
Goals therefore do feel guaranteed and I wouldn’t be surprised if this finishes level come full-time, such is the attacking form of both teams currently compared to defence.
Prediction: Fulham 1-1 Brentford
