Arsenal will entertain Fulham at the Emirates Stadium this Saturday evening as they look to secure all three points in this London derby. The Gunners managed to grind out a 1-1 draw away at Atletico Madrid recently, which should give them some confidence going into this game.
Mikel Arteta will set his players up in a 4-3-3 formation and is expected to make a few tweaks to his first team for this clash. Bukayo Saka, Leandro Trossard and Eberechi Eze could all play from the start of this game.
4-3-3 Arsenal Predicted Lineup To Face Fulham
Defence
David Raya will operate in goal for the North London club after shipping in one goal in his last outing. Gabriel will continue to play alongside William Saliba at the heart of Arsenal‘s backline as they try to keep the opposition at bay during the game.
Ben White will look to put in a solid display as the right-back, while Piero Hincapie will hope to give a good account of himself on the other flank as the left-back. Both of them will try to go forward and join in on the attack at every chance they can get.
Cristhian Mosquera will offer cover for the defensive positions on the bench.

Midfield
Declan Rice, Martin Zubimendi and Eberechi Eze will make up Arteta’s midfield. Their main focus would be to establish their superiority over the opposition at the centre of the park.
Christian Norgaard and Martin Odegaard will be named on the bench as they wait for their opportunity to influence the game in the second 45 minutes if needed.
Attack
Leandro Trossard will try to prove his value on the left flank, while Bukayo Saka looks to weave his magic as the right-winger. Both of them will try to get in behind the opposition’s backline at every chance they can get.
Viktor Gyokeres will lead the charge for the North London club in the final third. He has to figure out a way to be a real threat up top.
Gabriel Jesus and Noni Madueke will be available for selection on the bench and might come on to make an impact in the final quarter if required.
