Fulham is undoubtedly the most distinguished club in England. Does anyone know a better club in the world? Usual replies to [email protected] or via X: @michaelbutler18.

Traoré has been a bit back and forth latelySo it's no surprise to see Marco Silva bench him for Reiss Nelson, who joins former Gunners Bernd Leno, Emile Smith Rowe and Alex Iwobi in Fulham's starting XI. And what a replacement Traoré will be later in the game when Brentford's legs cramp up.

Just in case you missed that after Brentford's last gameThat was a pretty impressive speech from Thomas Frank as he congratulated Ethan Pinnock on 100 Premier League appearances. Pinnock, who played non-league football for Dulwich Hamlet for the first six years of his career, starts again tonight for number 101.

preamble

Hello everyone. Fulham and Brentford may be as different as Harrods and Hounslow, but at the moment the two west London clubs are eerily similar. After losing their best players (João Palhinha and Ivan Toney) in the summer, the two clubs have started the season well overall and are one point apart in 11th and 12th place, both with a net goal difference of zero.

Fulham are probably the stronger team at the moment, but Brentford have the better coach. Both are aiming for a place in the first half but would likely be fighting for survival at the end of the season. Both teams almost beat City at the Etihad this season and both lost to Manchester United. The point is that no one knows how high the ceiling or floor is on one side. And that, like watching Adama Traoré, is pretty exciting.

It's a derby under the lights. Join me.

Start: 20:00 GMT.
