How Arsenal could line up against Fulham

How Arsenal could line up against Fulham

Arsenal's squad is in excellent shape heading into Saturday's Premier League clash with Fulham.

The Gunners, who sit top of the Premier League table with three wins from their first three matches, will again be without the services of Reiss Nelson due to a thigh problem.

However, the rest of the first-team squad are fit and available, meaning that head coach Mikel Arteta has a relatively straightforward task when it comes to naming his side for this match.

Arsenal have been unchanged for their opening three matches of the 2022-23 campaign, and the same XI are expected to take to the field once again here.

Gabriel Jesus, who has starred since his arrival from Manchester City, is set to continue at the tip of the attack with support from Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli in the wide areas.

Martin Odegaard scored a brace in last weekend's 3-0 win at Bournemouth, meanwhile, and he will also again be in the starting side for this match.

Granit Xhaka and Thomas Partey will hold the midfield, with Ben White and Oleksandr Zinchenko playing in the full-back positions, and William Saliba operating alongside Gabriel Magalhaes in the middle.

As a result, the likes of Takehiro Tomiyasu, Emile Smith Rowe, Eddie Nketiah and Kieran Tierney will have to accept positions on the bench once again.

Arsenal possible starting lineup: Ramsdale; White, Saliba, Gabriel, Zinchenko; Thomas, Xhaka; Saka, Odegaard, Martinelli; Gabriel Jesus
