Arsenal will end gameweek eight of the 2025-26 season at the top of the Premier League table if they can snap a two-game winless run at Fulham's Craven Cottage home on Saturday evening.
The Gunners climbed to the summit with a 2-0 win over West Ham United two weekends ago, while the Cottagers are down in 14th after back-to-back 3-1 losses to Aston Villa and Bournemouth, and here Sports Mole rounds up the team news for both clubs.
