Raul Jimenez starts up front for Fulham, who must make do without Aleksandar Mitrovic and Joao Palhinha.

Brentford include Kevin Schade in their XI, but Ben Mee again misses out through injury.

Fulham and Brentford will contest the first west London derby of the 23/24 Premier League season this weekend.ulham and Brentford will contest the first west London derby of the 23/24 Premier League season this weekend.

Fulham kick-started the new campaign with a 1-0 victory over Everton last weekend. In some ways Marco Silva's side were fortunate to depart Goodison Park with all three points. Everton created numerous golden chances but were extremely wasteful in front of goal, while the Cottagers relied heavily on their goalkeeper Bernd Leno. When the ball finally entered the net, it was courtesy of Fulham forward Bobby Decordova-Reid.

Silva's team did brilliantly last season. Widely tipped to finish in the bottom three following their promotion for the Championship, Fulham instead secured a top-10 berth. That was quite the achievement, especially as they did not spend a huge amount of money in the transfer window. Silva's side were more than the sum of their parts and that allowed them to outperform expectations. Whether they can continue to progress this term remains to be seen.

Brentford also finished in the top half of the table in 22/23. But the loss of Ivan Toney to suspension until January means the Bees will have to make do without their talisman in the first half of this season. In fairness, Thomas Frank's team performed pretty well without Toney last weekend, holding Tottenham to a 2-2 draw. Brentford are one of the best run clubs in the Premier League and they should find a way to cope without their star man.

Both games between these two teams were entertaining last season, with 3-2 victories for the home side on both occasions. Fulham will have the advantage of playing in front of their own fans on this occasion, but there is not much between these teams and we could be in store for a close match.
