Where to watch the Fulham vs Arsenal match?

Sunday’s match of the 20th round of the Premier League will offer a confrontation of two teams from different corners of the table. The current form nevertheless plays for the guests, who are fighting for the first place. The battle will be hosted by Craven Cottage, the match will be played on December 31 at 15:00.

Fulham, as they sleep right now

Now three losses without a goal in a row, before that two 5: 0 triumphs in one week. What to expect from the home side is hard to determine, as they certainly have the quality. It’s not for nothing that Joao Palhinha follows Bayern Munich intensively, veteran Willian is also doing well. The problem is composure, which the team lacks.

Arsenal need to shake things up

The Gunners have lost to Newcastle and Aston Villa in the league so far this season, and have responded to both defeats with a win. On the other hand, it was at home both times. Outside of that, the solid defence is also fairly on fire, with only one clean sheet from the last ten games.

Betting tip – Arsenal to win

The Gunners loss to West Ham shuffled the cards quite a bit, yet Arsenal have shown several times this season that they are mentally stronger than last year. Plus, Kai Havertz will be back after his card penalty. That’s also why I believe the visitors can win against a crumbling Fulham. I also think the Cottagers can score at home. And I expect Arsenal to have a worse start to the game after Thursday’s loss, which is why I predict the first goal in the second 15 minutes.
