VS
Fulham vs Brighton is a balanced English matchup shaped by changing competition settings, shared draws and contrasting home responses. Brighton won 5–0 in April 2016, Fulham replied 4–2 at Craven Cottage in January 2019, and two 0–0 Premier League meetings followed in December 2020 and January 2021. Fulham won 3–0 at home in March 2024, Brighton answered 2–1 in March 2025, and Fulham edged a 2–1 contest on 24 January 2026. New meetings should preserve that exchange.

Stats for this game
Matchup Fulham VS Brighton
Neither ground settles the question
Fulham and Brighton have exchanged meaningful results at both venues. Brighton won 2–0 at Craven Cottage on 29 December 2014 and 5–0 at home on 15 April 2016, but Fulham answered with a 4–2 home victory on 29 January 2019. The 2–2 draw at Brighton on 1 September 2018 and successive 0–0 league draws in December 2020 and January 2021 underline how easily the pairing can become controlled and even.
Changing contexts keep it open
The series has crossed the Championship and Premier League, so its identity comes from the clubs’ responses rather than one fixed setting. Fulham won 2–1 at home on 30 August 2022 and 1–0 away on 18 February 2023; Brighton then held a 1–1 draw at home on 29 October 2023 before Fulham won 3–0 and 3–1 in the two 2024 meetings at Craven Cottage. Brighton’s 2–1 home win on 8 March 2025 was followed by a 1–1 draw there on 16 August and Fulham’s 2–1 home win on 24 January 2026. A future meeting will ask whether Fulham can protect its home response or Brighton can turn possession into another away answer.
