Arsenal will be out to break their Craven Cottage curse when they face Fulham in the Premier League this weekend. Despite their dominant form under Mikel Arteta in recent seasons, the Gunners have failed to secure a win at Fulham’s home ground in their last two visits — losing there on New Year’s Eve two seasons ago and drawing last term after Bukayo Saka’s late winner was ruled out for offside.

However, Arsenal arrive in west London as league leaders, boosted by Liverpool’s recent back-to-back defeats and their own impressive form that’s seen them overcome tricky opponents like Newcastle United and West Ham United this season. Arteta’s side look more mature and adaptable following an assertive summer of squad strengthening.

Fulham, meanwhile, are looking to bounce back after consecutive losses, including a frustrating 3–1 defeat at Bournemouth where Antoine Semenyo’s inspired performance denied them any points. Marco Silva’s side have dropped to 14th and will need to rediscover their early-season resilience to challenge Arsenal’s title momentum.

All eyes will be on whether Arsenal can finally end their Craven Cottage hoodoo and strengthen their position at the top of the Premier League table.
