The Gunners must continue. This Saturday, Arsenal receives Fulham at the Emirates Stadium for the third day of the Premier League. After having kicked off its season ideally by winning the Community Shield against Manchester City, the London club won its first two league matches against Nottingham (2-1) and Crystal Palace (0-1). Fulham, for its part, won on the lawn of Everton (0-1) but lost heavily at home last weekend against Brentford (0-3). The meeting can be followed live with commentary on French Football Weekly from 4 p.m.
For this match, Mikel Arteta again aligns a 4-3-3 with Thomas Partey in a special role between side and midfield. Kiwior is lined up as a left-back. Odegaard, Rice and Havertz make up the middle three. In front, Saka and Martinelli accompany Trossard despite the good dynamics of Nketiah and the return from injury of Gabriel Jesus. Opposite, Marco Silva also lines up a 4-3-3 with the first PL tenure of rookie Bassey alongside Frenchman Issa Diop in central defense. Raul Jimenez, who also arrived this summer, starts at the forefront of the attack.
Team compositions:
Arsenal: Ramsdale – Partey, White, Saliba, Kiwior – Odegaard, Rice, Havertz – Saka, Trossard, Martinelli
Fulham: Leno – Tete, Diop, Bassey, Robinson – Lukic, Palhinha, Pereira – Wilson, Jimenez, De Crodova-Reid
