Fulham vs Arsenal Predictions
- Fulham have seen over 2.5 goals in seven of their last eight league games
- Arsenal have conceded in seven of their last nine league games
- The hosts have shipped 16 goals across their meetings with the top five
Setback for Gunners
Arsenal lost their grip on top spot with a loss to West Ham in midweek, suffering a 2-0 defeat at the Emirates. They can end 2023 on top of the table with a win at Fulham on Sunday. While the visitors have issues, the Cottagers are on a run of three straight league defeats and they look vulnerable heading into this one.
Arsenal have won just one of their last five games in all competitions, falling short in visits to Liverpool and Aston Villa in the league. They should be able to return to winning ways in this trip, but their defensive issues can’t be ignored.
Visitors looking shaky
Arsenal have managed just one clean sheet across their last seven matches, while they’ve conceded in seven of their previous nine Premier League games. The Gunners have conceded in 12 of their 19 matches this term, while they meet a Fulham side who have averaged close to two goals per home game this season.
The hosts are a tough side to predict, given that they had won 5-0 in consecutive matches before their recent three-game losing streak. However, they head into this match with all but one of their last eight games seeing over 2.5 goals land, so there’s reason to belive this will be high-scoring.
Another tough test for Fulham
The hosts have faced each of the current top five on the road this season, with 22 goals scored across those encounters. They drew 2-2 with Arsenal, while they conceded 16 times across those five outings. Having lost 3-0 in two of their last three games, there’s a good chance that the Cottagers’ defence could be overrun in this clash.
Arsenal have won each of their visits to the teams in the bottom half so far this term and with Fulham’s poor record against top teams considered, the visitors should have enough to come through this test. However, they do tend to claim quite slender victories this term, so the value here lies with over 2.5 goals and a 2-1 win for the Gunners.
