Fulham face Brighton in competitive mid-table clash at Craven Cottage

Marco Silva’s Fulham side will be looking to build on their solid recent form when they welcome Brighton & Hove Albion to Craven Cottage on Saturday afternoon.

Both teams have been praised for their tactical organisation and ability to compete with the league’s traditional heavyweights on limited budgets.

The Seagulls, boosted by the return of Facundo Buonanotte to the squad after a successful loan spell, remain one of the most exciting teams to watch in the division, though they have struggled for consistency away from home.

The match is expected to be a tight tactical battle between two managers who favour progressive, possession-based football.

Fulham will rely on their strong home record to navigate a Brighton side that can be devastating on the counter-attack.

With both clubs comfortably clear of the relegation zone, the focus is on securing a top-ten finish and potentially pushing for the minor European spots.
