Arsenal V Fulham Team News, Predicted XI And Betting Odds

Arsenal have the perfect opportunity to get back to winning ways following their capitulation to Liverpool on Saturday. The Gunners face strugglers Fulham tomorrow afternoon.

Claudio Ranieri’s side will go into the game, though, with some added confidence after their last-gasp win in their relegation six-pointer against Huddersfield at the weekend.

Unai Emery will still be without Mesut Ozil who was unavailable against Liverpool due to a knee problem. The Spaniard says he doesn’t know how long the midfielder will be out for.

Nacho Monreal (thigh) also remains a doubt for the game, with Hector Bellerin unlikely to feature either due to a calf strain.

Henrikh Mkhitaryan (foot), Konstantinos Mavropanos (groin), Rob Holding (knee), Emile Smith Rowe (groin) and Danny Welbeck (ankle) all remain out of contention.

Fulham have a much shorter injury list. Centre-back Alfie Mawson is a major doubt with a knee injury while Andre Zambo-Anguissa is suffering with a knock. Calum Chambers is ineligible to play against his parent club.

At the bookies, the Gunners are odds-on at 4/11 with Betfred. A draw is 23/5 at Unibet while a victory for the Cottagers is best priced at 9/1 with Betfair.

Arsenal’s Predicted XI To Face Fulham:

Leno, Maitland-Niles, Mustafi, Sokratis, Koscielny, Kolasinac, Torreira, Xhaka, Iwobi, Aubameyang, Lacazette
