Arsenal vs Fulham preview & prediction

Match preview

This weekend sees the return of the Premier League, with Fulham facing Mikel Arteta’s excellent Arsenal team in a crucial match at the Emirates Stadium on Saturday.

In the Premier League standings, Fulham is currently in 13th place and has not played well this year. The away team will need to put in a lot of effort to win this game after suffering a devastating 3-0 loss to Brentford the previous week.

Arsenal, on the other hand, is now in third position in the league table and has had a good year. The Gunners defeated Crystal Palace by a narrow 1-0 margin in their most recent contest, and they’ll try to improve on that performance this weekend.

Arsenal vs Fulham prediction

Arsenal will be serious about giving Manchester City a fight for their money this season with the fantastic roster they have at their disposal. The likes of Gabriel Martinelli and Bukayo Saka, who have matured over the previous year, will want to establish themselves this weekend.

Although Fulham can be formidable on occasion, they have a dismal track record at the Emirates Stadium. Arsenal should be able to win this game because they are the superior team on paper.
