Arsenal will have their title credentials tested in the Premier League on Sunday when they make the trip to Craven Cottage.
The Gunners have won each of their last three in the English top-flight, which includes a 2-0 success over Man United in midweek. That victory moved the Gunners within seven points of Liverpool at the summit.
Fulham are also on the charge in the Premier League at present, winning three of their last five to move up to sixth. A second straight win on Sunday could see the Cottagers end the round in the top five.

Fulham upset the odds in this exact fixture last season, coming back from behind to win 2-1. However, the Cottagers have never won consecutive matches against the Gunners in their history.
But, Arsenal are winless in their last two. Still, the Gunners have scored at least once in each of their last 18 Premier League matches against the Cottagers.
