History of the Fulham v Arsenal fixture

Arsenal face a trip to Fulham at Craven Cottage on Wednesday evening, looking to further improve upon a decent past record there. So far, the Gunners have winning 52.63% of the games played between the two.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in March 2006, where Arsenal annihilated the Gunners 0 - 4 in a Premiership match.

Recent respective form guides

Fulham's home form is poor, winning just 2 of the last six, and losing the other 4. While Cottagers have scored 4, a worringly large 7 have been leaked at the other end.

Arsenal's away form is none too clever either, winning and losing 3 each of the last six games. The games have constituted a decent return of 8 goals for the Gunners, and 3 goals against.

Fulham see themselves just below half way in the Barclays Premiership, showing a record of 17 points from their 14 games played so far, Arsenal find themselves in a respectable 6th position, courtesy of the 22 points they have accumulated from 13 games.
