Arsenal vs Fulham Preview & Prediction 18 Apr 2021

The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Arsenal are in the 9th position while the guesting Fulham worry at 18th.

Insights:

Arsenal have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
Fulham have the most matches under the total-line (20) in Premier League

Arsenal have less rest than Fulham in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a Europa League game only three days ago. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Slavia Praha.

This is a local derby, usually meaning added tension and importance.

Arsenal form and stats

When playing at home in the Premier League, Arsenal have managed 6 wins, 3 draws and suffered 6 defeats from 15 games.

In the game before, an away victory in the Premier League match versus Sheffield United with a 3-0 scoreline.

As mentioned above, Arsenal "killed" Slavia Praha in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency.

The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier Arsenal matches with similar probabilities have ended with one win, two draws and zero defeats (from three games).

The Arsenal fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 18 in 15 matches. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 2 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Arsenal have conceded 18 in these home matches.

Fulham form and stats

3-7-5 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Fulham in their Premier League matches away. With the Fulham losing streak of four defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking.

The manager S. Parker was unhappy after their last game, a Premier League match played at their home ground Craven Cottage. Fulham suffered a 0-1 loss to Wolverhampton Wanderers (placed 12th). Preceding that game, the 1-3 loss visiting Aston Villa's place.

Late heartbreak for Fulham in the Wolverhampton Wanderers match, as the deciding 0-1 goal came deep into overtime.

Looking at the earlier recent performances of Fulham when being an outsider away as they are today, we find five matches with the visitors losing four times, drawing zero and winning one game.

Fulham have scored 15 goals on their travels this season, from 15 away games in the league. 18 goals have been conceded by Fulham in these games.

Head 2 Head

Fulham - Arsenal 0-3 was the story when these teams last met, earlier this season. Arsenal-Fulham H2H statistics last ten meetings regardless of arena: Arsenal six wins, Fulham one win, three draws. seven of these ten matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).
