The Premier League is back in action with another round of matches this weekend as Fulham take on Mikel Arteta's Arsenal side in an important clash at Craven Cottage on Sunday. Both teams can pack a punch on their day and will want to win this game.
Fulham vs Arsenal Preview
Fulham are currently in sixth place in the Premier League standings and have consistently punched above their weight so far this season. The home side defeated Brighton & Hove Albion by a 3-1 margin last week and will be confident ahead of this fixture.
Arsenal, on the other hand, are in third place in the league table at the moment and have been inconsistent in recent months. The Gunners eased past Manchester United by a 2-0 margin in their previous game and will look to achieve a similar result this weekend.
Fulham vs Arsenal Head-to-Head and Key Numbers
Arsenal have a good historical record against Fulham and have won 42 out of the 64 matches played between the two teams, as opposed to Fulham's nine victories.
Fulham pulled off a comeback to secure a 2-1 victory against Arsenal in the Premier League in this exact fixture last season and have never won consecutive home games against the Gunners in the history of the competition.
Arsenal were winless in both their matches against Fulham in the Premier League last season - their longest such run against the Cottagers in the competition since 2012.
Arsenal have found the back of the net in each of their last 18 matches against Fulham in the Premier League, with their previous failure coming in a 0-0 stalemate in February 2009.
Fulham are unbeaten in their last eight London derbies in the Premier League.
Fulham vs Arsenal Prediction
Arsenal were at their robust best against Manchester United and will need a good run of results to remain in the title race. Bukayo Saka and Martin Odegaard have been impressive for the Gunners and will look to make an impact this weekend.
Fulham can pull off an upset on their day and managed to keep Arsenal at bay last season. Arsenal are the better team on paper, however, and hold a slight upper hand going into this game.
Prediction: Fulham 1-2 Arsenal
