Brentford Players to Watch
The next three players are considered key to Brentford's attacking attack and it is likely that any of them could score in the game against Fulham. The Cameroonian player Bryan Mbeumo (#19) is a great midfielder who is recognized as the team's top scorer and as a great leader on the pitch. His ability to control the ball and generate plays have been invaluable to his team and we could see him score on Saturday. Midfielder Yoane Wissa (#11) is another all-important on-court play dealer, his great ball control making him the team's biggest assister. Finally, the 30-year-old goalkeeper Mark Flekken (#1) is one of the best goalkeepers in the Premier League, his height allows him to save almost any ball and it is very important for his team not to receive a goal on Saturday .

They arrive as the least favorites to win this game, however they could surprise and win.
Fulham Players to Watch
The next three players are considered key to Fulham's attacking attack and it is likely that any of them could score in the game against Brentford. Serbian player Aleksandar Mitrovic (#9) is the team's creative, his ability to control the ball and generate plays have been of great value to his team. He is the team's leading scorer and we could see him score on Saturday. Midfielder Andreas Pereira (#18) is another all-important on-pitch distributor and is the team's biggest assister in the Premier League. At his young age he has accomplished a lot and he is an important part of the team. Finally, the 31-year-old goalkeeper Bernd Leno (#17) is one of the best goalkeepers in the Premier League, his height allows him to be a stopper for any ball and it is very important for his team not to receive a goal on Saturday.
