Yoane Wissa's opener and Bryan Mbeumo's double gave Brentford a comfortable win over west London rivals Fulham, who were reduced to 10 men at Craven Cottage.

A defensive error from Fulham centre-back Issa Diop set up Wissa, who rounded goalkeeper Bernd Leno before slotting the Bees into the lead on the stroke of half-time.

In the 64th minute, Wissa went through on goal only to be pushed over by Tim Ream in the box as he attempted to shoot.

The Fulham captain was given a second yellow card, with Mbeumo calmly netting the penalty in off the post.

And the Brentford winger added a third in the 92nd minute, tapping in Kristoffer Ajer's low cross.

Brentford's win was their fifth in eight games against Fulham and extended their unbeaten run in London derbies to 11, equalling a club record.

After the match, Fulham manager Marco Silva confirmed forward Aleksandar Mitrovic was being sold to Saudi Pro League side Al-Hilal.

Mitrovic was not in the squad for Saturday's game after a picking up an ankle injury in his side's win over Everton last week.

Frank praises 'dangerous' Brentford

Wissa and Mbeumo have made excellent starts to the season, having both also scored against Tottenham last Saturday.

The visitors are without last season's top scorer Ivan Toney, who is banned until January for breaking betting rules, but manager Thomas Frank will be relieved by the sparkling early form of his team-mates.
