- Venue: Craven Cottage
Fulham and Arsenal meet at Craven Cottage this weekend, with both sides looking to continue their recent impressive forms in the English Premier League.
The hosts are having a season to remember under head coach Marco Silva. The Cottagers struggled last season following the departure of Mitrovic, finishing just a few places above the relegation zone, but that is now a thing of the past. Marco Silva's men have suffered just one defeat in their last six games - winning three and drawing two. That run has seen Fulham move up to sixth in the table and they will be keen to get something from the visit of the Gunners this weekend, having beaten Brighton 3-1 at this ground in midweek.
Arsenal meanwhile endured an ugly spell between the 2nd and 10th of November when they lost consecutive games without scoring and drew 1-1 with Chelsea at the Bridge. Since the return of captain Martin Ødegaard, the Gunners have been a different side, winning their last four games by a combined score of 15-3. Arsenal fans shouldn't get too carried away with those figures, though. The Gunners boast just one win from their last five league games away from the Emirates.
Fulham vs Arsenal Betting Tips: Over 2.5 goals
One of Fulham's main problems last season was scoring goals, but Marko Silva has sorted that out. Indeed, the Cottagers have found the back of the net at least once in each of their last 15 games in all competitions. However, they are struggling defensively, having kept three clean sheets in that time.
Arsenal are also enjoying a great run in front of goal. Mikel Arteta's men scored three or more goals in three of their last four games and the same number of games ended with more than 2.5 goals scored.
- Best Tip: Over 2.5 goals
- Fulham vs Arsenal prediction: 1-2
