Fulham vs. Brighton -2025 Premier Leauge Opener

Fulham's 2025 Premier League campaign gets started down at the Amex against Brighton. The match will be on USA with kickoff at 10am EDT.

The big story for Fulham is the lack of transfers. No new outfield players have come in. Silva and the fan base are incredibly frustrated with the lack of additions. However, Fulham have not had any significant departures so the squad is relatively unchanged. There also seem to have been some positive developments - Josh King is playing a bigger role, Wilson appears better than ever, and Fulham's production from set pieces have been much better. So what does this mean for where Fulham goes from last season? Saturday's performance could provide some clarity.

The big concern for Fulham is that Robinson is still not available after recovering from surgery. We had all hoped he'd be ready to go by this point, but we'll have to continue to wait. I expect the lineup to be the same as what faced Eintracht Frankfurt. The back line had Tete, Andersen, Bassey, and Sessegnon. The midfield was Berge, Lukic, and King with Wilson and Iwobi on the wings. Then Raul was up top. I won't be surprised if Smith Rowe gets the start over King, but I really hope it is King who starts. King has been the most exciting part of Fulham's summer and I think he deserves to get the start.

Prediction? I'll say a 2-1 loss with a late winner from Brighton - just like Fulham's last match there since nothing much has changed.
