Fulham vs Arsenal Prediction – Premier League Prediction & Betting Tips 08/12/2024
Arsenal will travel to face Fulham in a London Derby on Sunday for their Premier League matchday 15 clash at Craven Cottage. Can the Cottagers build on last season’s victory over the Gunners?
Fulham Preview & Form
Fulham displayed a strong, convincing performance in their midweek clash on Thursday to end their two-match winless streak in the league. The Cottagers return to winning by beating Brighton 3-1 on their home soil, courtesy of a brilliant brace by Nigerian playmaker Alex Iwobi. The victory in midweek propelled Fulham up to sixth place in the table on 22 points after 14 matches, just four points adrift of the top four. Marco Silva will be hoping his side can build on last season’s success against Arsenal, where they had to come from a goal down to claim all three points in the match.
Marco Silva’s men have been in a mixed string of form when playing on their home soil this season, as the Cottagers have recorded four wins, two losses, and a draw in their home game. Each of Fulham’s home games this season has ended in both teams scoring.
