Brentford missed a chance to move into the Premier League top six after Bernd Leno’s late save preserved Fulham’s point.
- On Saturday, April 18, 2026, Brentford missed the chance to leapfrog Chelsea into the Premier League top six after being held to a 0-0 draw by west London rivals Fulham.
- The Bees are now six games unbeaten in the Premier League, though five consecutive draws have stalled their charge for an unlikely Champions League qualification spot.
