Brentford, Fulham Stalemate in Premier League Opener

LONDON (Interstat) — Brentford and Fulham opened their Premier League campaigns with a scoreless draw Saturday at Gtech Community Stadium.

The match, played in Hounslow, failed to produce a goal despite projections favoring the home side. Interstat’s pregame metrics gave Brentford a near 95 percent probability to win, with its simulator predicting a 1-1 result. The clearest chance came through Fulham substitute Saša Lukić, who provided a key assist chance that was not converted. Lukić also received the game’s first yellow card in the sixth minute.

The result leaves both London clubs with identical records to start the season: no wins, no losses and one draw in all competitions.
