Arsenal will be determined to put their 5-1 defeat at Liverpool behind them when they welcome Fulham to the Emirates Stadium on New Year’s Day.
That thrashing at Anfield was the Gunners’ third defeat in five fixtures, and they are now five points adrift of fourth-placed Chelsea.
General Match Information:
Team: Arsenal vs Fulham
League: English Premier League
Date: Tuesday, 1 January 2019
Kick-Off Time: 16:00 PM GMT +1
Venue: Emirates Stadium (London).
Although a repeat of their big win at Craven Cottage would go down very well after the painful defeat at the weekend, Unai Emery’s men are likely to find the Cottagers a much more difficult nut to crack this time out.
Team news
Rob Holding, Danny Welbeck, Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Konstantinos Mavropanos are all ruled out through injury, while Hector Bellerin, Nacho Monreal and Mesut Ozil are all doubts.
Alfie Mawson and Andre-Frank Zambo Anguissa are both expected to be fit despite knocks, although the on-loan Calum Chambers is ineligible to face his parent club.
Arsenal vs Fulham: Head-to-head
Arsenal have won each of the last four meetings between these two sides and are unbeaten in five, including a 5-1 victory at Craven Cottage in October's reverse fixture.
Indeed, Fulham have only ever won eight of the previous 56 editions of this fixture, with Arsenal triumphing 38 times.
Incredibly, Fulham have never won an away game against Arsenal either, with all eight of their wins coming on home soil. Arsenal have won 23 of their previous 28 home games against Fulham, although three of the Cottagers' five draws in that time have come since the Gunners moved to the Emirates Stadium.
Arsenal possible starting lineup:
Leno; Mustafi, Koscielny, Sokratis; Maitland-Niles, Torreira, Xhaka, Kolasinac; Iwobi, Lacazette, Aubameyang
Fulham possible starting lineup:
Rico; Odoi, Ream, Le Marchand; Christie, Anguissa, Seri, Sessegnon; Cairney; Vietto, Mitrovic
Arsenal vs Fulham Prediction
Arsenal are not in great form at the moment, but they are always strong at home and Fulham have a miserable record away to their capital rivals.
