This weekend’s Premier slate concludes in London and we’ve got Brentford vs Fulham bet builder tips.
The hosts last tasted domestic defeat in October, some 12 games ago. That is the longest unbeaten run in the top flight by some distance (11 games), next best is Manchester City (4).

Brentford vs Fulham Preview
England, Premier League, Monday, March 6, 20:00 (UK)
Fulham’s campaign cannot be understated, seventh in the division 25 games in is some achievement for the new boys, especially considering they were one of the ante-post favourites for the drop.
They have been in great form since the turn of the year.
With eight games played and their only defeats were marginal ones at St James’ Park and against Tottenham. Over that period they have won four games, besting Leicester, Chelsea, Forest and Brighton.
Their most recent one was the definition of a smash-and-grab on the south coast. The Cottagers only had 35% of possession, two shots on target and generated an xG of 0.29 but returned home with the points.
Marco Silva’s side will be glad to have their talisman Aleksandar Mitrovic back available to start.
The Serbian has not featured in the league since mid-February but started in the Cup against Leeds on Tuesday and should return to the XI at Brentford.
The Bees have drawn three of their last four games, tricky contests against Palace, lead league Arsenal and relegation-stricken Leeds.
The manner of that most recent draw, against the Eagles, will galvanise the group as they nicked an equaliser deep into stoppage time.
Thomas Frank’s side’s unbeaten run in the Premier League stretches all the way back to October, 11 games in total.
Over that period they have picked up a couple of scalps, a 1-2 win at the Etihad and a 3-1 victory at home to Liverpool.

Brentford vs Fulham Bet Builder
It is an ambitious bet builder for this clash, but it pits two goalscoring card merchants against one another so I could not resist.
The bet is Ivan Toney and Aleksandar Mitrovic both to score and be carded, you can combine them via Betfair’s bet builder.
Brentford’s frontman is his sides top goalscorer with 14 and most booked player, his tally of eight is twice that of any other Bee’s player.
This campaign, the Toney leg of the bet has clicked in three of his 21 starts, last season it clicked twice, that is roughly 0.10 per 90.
The Mitrovic leg of the bet has landed on two occasions this season, eight times last season and one time the season before that when Fulham were relegated.
When the sides met earlier this season, there were five goals with these two each helping themselves to one a piece, so I think we will get a run for our money.
Anthony Taylor takes charge here, a man who has averaged just under four cards per game in the top flight this season. In his last five games, he has dished out 20 bookings, a red card and two penalties.
