Fulham comes into this game sitting in 7th place in the standings having picked up 39 points. Last Monday against Brentford Fulham scored two goals, but the defense gave up three goals and that led to the defeat. Two games ago in the FA Cup, Fulham scored two goals and ended up winning 2-0. Palhinha will be surviving a suspension for yellow cards picked up in this game. Tom Cairney is dealing with a foot injury but it’s expected that he’s going to be able to go in this game. Bernd Leno and Willian are both expected to start against their former team in this game.

On the other side of this matchup is Arsenal who sits in 1st place in the standings having picked up 63 points. On Thursday against Sporting, Arsenal scored two goals, but the defense also gave up two goals. Arsenal had 68 percent of the possession and seven shots on target. On Saturday against AFC Bournemouth, they were able to secure the 3-2 victory. Arsenal has a decent grasp on the top spot, but they can’t be dropping points in this type of game. They need to pick up three points here. Eddie Nketiah, Leandro Trossard, and Gabriel Jesus all missed the last game because of injury. Jesus is expected to move back into the starting lineup in this game.
Shane’s Free Pick
Arsenal is the better team here but on the road, I think they are going to really be tested. Arsenal gave up two goals in their midweek game and their defense is going to struggle again in this game. Fulham might not secure the win, but they are going to do enough to at least pick up a draw. Back Fulham +0.5.
