Arsenal’s track record against Fulham at home is unrivalled in English league history.
In their 30 home league meetings, Arsenal have come out victorious 24 times, drawing the remaining six.
Fulham will be looking to change this record, but history is not on their side; no team has faced another at home without ever losing like Arsenal have against Fulham.
Following an impressive 1-0 victory over Everton on the opening day, Fulham are setting their sights on achieving something they’ve never done before: win their opening two away games in a top-flight campaign.
Marco Silva’s men will be aiming to make history at Emirates Stadium, a venue that hasn’t been kind to them in the past.
Arsenal’s Leandro Trossard has made a significant impact since his debut in January 2023. Leading the Premier League in assists with 10, he has proven to be a key player for Arsenal.
Notably, three of those assists came against Fulham in March, a statistic that Fulham will be all too aware of.
Fulham’s record on the road against fellow London clubs leaves much to be desired.
They have won just one of their last 19 top-flight matches in London (D4 L14).
That sole win was a 3-0 triumph against Crystal Palace on Boxing Day last year.
Silva’s side will be keen to improve this record, but facing an in-form Arsenal will be a tough challenge.
Saturday’s clash offers Fulham a chance to rewrite some unflattering statistics.
The Cottagers’ boss Marco Silva’s words reflect confidence in his squad, despite acknowledging Arsenal’s strengths.
With players like Willian possibly missing out and uncertainty around replacements, Fulham will need to dig deep to overturn history but few will give them much chance of stopping Arsenal.
For Arsenal, the focus will be on maintaining their dominance over Fulham and capitalising on key players like Trossard while maintaining their winning start to the season.
