Fulham XI vs Brighton – Predicted lineup and team news | OneFootball

Fulham begin their 2025/26 Premier League season with an away encounter against Brighton & Hove Albion at the Amex Stadium on Saturday.

The Cottagers head to the south coast targeting success in the opener, building on last term’s record points haul and 11th-place finish under Marco Silva. Fresh faces could be limited given minimal summer activity, as the team aims to leverage their physical style against a Brighton outfit with European ambitions.

While an impressive pre-season campaign of four wins from five games provides a strong foundation, Marco Silva’s focus will be on rectifying the team’s historical away struggles against the Seagulls.

Fulham team news

Harry Wilson could feature on the wing after a goal-laden pre-season campaign. Wilson could supplement an attack led by Raúl Jiménez, amid a quiet transfer window that has seen only the arrival of goalkeeper Benjamin Lecomte from Montpellier.

In terms of outgoings, Willian and Carlos Vinícius have been released, and Luke Harris has moved to Oxford United on loan.

A selection headache looms at left-back with Antonee Robinson ruled out through injury.

The side remains without major new signings but Fulham have held onto key figures unlike recent windows. Marco Silva has noted frustration over the passive approach to strengthening. No fresh suspensions or major injuries are noted, allowing Silva to deploy the intense, physical setup that earned plaudits last season.

Fulham predicted lineup

Fulham predicted XI: Leno; Tete, Diop, Andersen, Sessegnon; Lukic, Berge, Pereira; Traoré, Jiménez, Iwobi.
