2009-09-26 - Fulham vs Arsenal

A Sports Betting Pick by Cruiser

Analysis:

The last match for Saturday sees Arsenal travelling to Craven Cottage for the London derby match against Fulham. The Gunners will be boosted by the return of Russian playmaker Andrey Arshavin and his presence will be welcome as he has not featured for them since the start of September after aggravating his groin injury.

Meanwhile Wenger will conduct a late fitness test on Dutch striker Robin van Persie after he missed the Carling Cup win over West Brom last Tuesday. Arsenal will still miss the services of goalkeeper Manuel Almunia who continues to recover from a chest infection. That means that we will once again see Vito Mannone or Wojciech Szczesny start in goal.

Theo Walcott is close to full fitness and could feature at some point in this match. However the likes of Denilson (back), Samir Nasri (leg), Lukasz Fabianski (knee), Johan Djourou (knee) and Carlos Vela (ankle) remain out of the side.

For the home side Fulhsm they will make several changes to the side that were beaten in midweek against Manchester City 2-1 after Hodgson rested several of his key players. Fulham does now have any new injuries for this match and Hodgson could keeo faith with Zoltan Gera after he scored against Manchester City in midweek.

David Stockdale who had a poor game between the posts is expected to give way to Mark Schwarzer while key players Andy Johnson, Bobby Zamora and Brede Hangeland are all expected to return to the side.

Arsenal will be gunning for revenge after they were beaten by Fulham 1-0 last season. But one thing for sure is that The Gunners will not want to suffer a second successive away defeat in this match.

Take Arsenal to win this match.

Cheers and good luck,
Cruiser
