Tough one, Fulham play quite well against the top sides, although not very many wins to go with them.
Palhinha being suspended helps though.

Yeah this will be difficult, especially off the back of an away trip in Europe. Wouldn’t be surprised at all if we dropped points.
Got to win though if we want the title.
12 cup finals to go. :pray:
10 if we win the lot!
3-0 Mitrovic hatter
Played 15 times at Craven Cottage in the premier league (actually not true, we’ve only played 13 times the other two away fixtures against Fulham were played at Loftus Road)
11 wins, 1 draw, 3 defeats
Haven’t lost to Fulham since January 2nd 2012 when they came back from a goal down to beat us 2-1
Won the last four matches there.
1-0
3-1
5-1
3-0
I think any win this time is likely to be more in the 1-0 variety than the large margins of victory we’ve had in the recent past
Ramsdale
While
Saliba
Gabriel
Zinchenko
Partey
Xhaka
Odegaard
Martinelli
Saka
Trossard
Gabriel Jesus on the bench!
Jesus is back. :bow:
Hopefully he gets some minutes.
With everyone fit, we do have a pretty decent squad it has to be said. No it’s not of the strength of Man City’s but definitely the strongest it’s been in years
Fulham: Leno, Tete, Tosin, Ream, Robinson, Reed, Lukic, Pereira, Decordova-Reid, Solomon, Mitrovic.
Subs: Rodak, Wickens, Wilson, James, Diop, Vinicius, Francois, Harris, C Robinson.
Arsenal: Ramsdale, White, Saliba, Gabriel, Zinchenko, Partey, Xhaka, Odegaard, Saka, Martinelli, Trossard.
Subs: Turner, Tierney, Jesus, Smith Rowe, Holding, Tomiyasu, Jorginho, Vieira, Nelson.
-----------
No Willian. :lol:
Palhinha was always missing this one due to suspension.
Solomon and Mitrovic are the two danger men. We definitely need to do better defending set pieces today when it comes to the latterQuote:

On the whole we tend to do better away from home defensively because I don’t think we over exert in attack and therefore we don’t leave ourselves so stretched at the back.Quote:

Come on Arsenal. :bow:
