Games between these two clubs have tended to be very closely fought over recent years. Only one of the last eight meetings between Arsenal and Fulham have been won by more than a one-goal margin, a 3-0 victory for the Gunners at Craven Cottage back in 2023.
Arsenal have claimed all three points in six of the pair's last 10 encounters in the Premier League. However, three of the Gunners' last four wins against Fulham have been via a slender one-goal margin, which includes a 1-0 win in October's reverse league meeting.
Under 2.5 goals have been produced in four of Arsenal's last six matches across all competitions, including their last outing in the Premier League against Newcastle.
Fulham have also been involved in their fair share of low-scoring matches recently, with six of the Cottagers' last seven matches in league and cup witnessing fewer than three goals.
A lot has been spoken this season about the meaness of Arsenal's defence, and we believe this area of the Gunners' game will be key to securing all three points on Saturday. Mikel Arteta's side have kept three clean sheets in their last five Premier League matches, as well as keeping nine clean sheets in their 17 home games so far.
Meanwhile, Fulham have struggled to find the back of the net of late, failing to score in five of their last seven outings in league and cup, so you can see why we've backed a 1-0 win for the hosts.
Arsenal 1-0 Fulham
