Fulham have had an impressive start to the season, sitting in sixth heading into this weekend's set of matches. Other results have sent the Cottagers down to ninth place but their good beginning to the campaign must still be highlighted.

Marco Silva has overseen some good victories so far with his side beating Newcastle, Nottingham Forest, Brentford and most recently Brighton. Fulham have also provided tough tests for both Manchester teams and Tottenham, taking a point from the latter.

The Cottagers have shown they can cause the big teams some problems and could do the same to Arsenal, just as they did last season. As a result, the Gunners must be on their A-game for their trip to Craven Cottage.
