Fulham v Arsenal: match preview

This article is more than 5 years old

Arsenal have won eight matches in all competitions in a row, maybe not entirely convincingly at times, but winning is becoming a habit under Unai Emery. To break the run Fulham must prey on Arsenal’s defensive fragility and they have the perfect man in Aleksandar Mitrovic. The Serb, if given the right service, should have the beating of Shkodran Mustafi. The German always seems to have a blunder on the horizon and if Arsenal’s strikers have an off day then Fulham could snatch a much-needed win. Graham Searles
