Fulham and Arsenal enter their Sunday showdown brimming with confidence, each buoyed by impressive midweek victories.
Fulham, despite a less-than-dominant showing against Brighton, secured a vital 3-1 win, reaching 22 points — their best-ever tally after 14 Premier League matches. That achievement underscores the steady progress Marco Silva’s side has made this season.
Craven Cottage continues to offer a stage for late drama, with two of Fulham’s goals against Brighton coming after the 75th minute. Remarkably, the ground has seen both teams score in all seven of Fulham’s home matches so far this campaign. This trend mirrors last December’s memorable encounter with Arsenal, where Fulham pulled off a 2-1 win, ending an 11-game winless streak against the Gunners in league meetings.
Arsenal, on the other hand, showcased their set-piece prowess in a commanding 2-0 victory over Manchester United midweek. Both goals stemmed from corners, a testament to their dominance in this area; no team has scored more from corners since the start of the 2021/22 season. It also marked Arsenal’s fourth consecutive win by at least two goals, maintaining a strong run of form that includes four similar victories in their last five visits to Fulham.
Away from home, Mikel Arteta’s men have been particularly devastating. Over their past two away fixtures, they’ve struck ten times, with eight of those goals coming in the first half. Impressively, six different players have contributed to that haul, highlighting Arsenal’s attacking depth. They’ll aim to maintain that rhythm in this London derby, particularly as their record in capital clashes has been stellar, with no blanks in such fixtures since May 2022.
Alex Iwobi stands out for Fulham, finding himself in a purple patch of form. The former Arsenal player was instrumental against Brighton, scoring twice to bring his goal contributions for Fulham this season to eight — already surpassing his total from the previous campaign. For Arsenal, Jürrien Timber’s midweek goal was a significant moment. Not only was it his first for the club, but it also extended his perfect record of seven wins in games where he has scored.
Interestingly, Arsenal’s away matches have revealed another curious pattern: their opponents have consistently received the first yellow card in each of the last nine outings. It’s a detail that highlights the Gunners’ disciplined approach, often forcing the opposition into errors.
Sunday’s clash promises to be an intriguing contest between two sides riding waves of momentum. While Fulham will lean on their fortress-like home form, Arsenal’s lethal efficiency on the road sets up a compelling narrative for this London derby. With key players in form and tactical battles on display, this match is poised to deliver another memorable chapter in the rivalry.
