Stats you need to know arsenal vs Fulham

In our 33 Premier League meetings with Fulham, we have only won three times (D7 L23), and those three victories all occurred at Craven Cottage in November 2006, August 2008, and January 2012.

Twelve of the previous sixteen calendar years (D2 L2), including the last three in a row, have seen us win our final league match. We haven’t played on December 31 in a row until this year.

In their previous seven Premier League home games against London rivals, Fulham has suffered five losses and failed to score in each of those five sets of losses.

In the nine London derbies we have played away from home in the Premier League, we are undefeated (W7 D2). Our last extended streak of victories in these kinds of games spanned from September 2001 to April 2005 (19).

After winning their first two Premier League games 5-0, Fulham has now dropped its last three games by an overall score of 0–8. Since September 1971, the Cottagers have not dropped four straight league games while failing to score in each one.

In three of his four Premier League games against Fulham, Gabriel has scored. Two of these (both 3-0 victories) occurred at Craven Cottage: one during his Gunners debut in September 2020, and the other during this same match the previous season.

Willian is the Fulham player with the most direct involvement in Premier League goals at Craven Cottage, having contributed to eight goals and two assists since the season’s beginning. But in the Premier League, he has made the most appearances against us without ever scoring (12 goals).

Martin Odegaard has more away goals in the Premier League than any other Arsenal player since the season began, having both scored (11) and assisted (17, six).

In his five Premier League encounters with Fulham, Mikel Arteta has won three and drawn two. He has never lost against the Cottagers.
