Fulham and Arsenal face off in an all-London Premier League affair at Craven Cottage on Sunday afternoon.
Both capital clubs will head into this clash off the back of impressive top-flight triumphs in midweek.
After claiming a 1-1 draw away at Tottenham last weekend, Fulham returned to winning ways on Thursday night with a 3-1 win over Brighton, bringing up a couple of bets for our man Kevin Mac.
That victory means Marco Silva’s men will start the weekend surveying the standings from the lofty heights of sixth place.
As for Arsenal, they kept up their recent revival by running out well-deserved 2-0 winners over Manchester United on Wednesday night.
Consequently, Mikel Arteta’s side have cut the gap on league leaders Liverpool to seven points, though the Reds could extend their lead at the summit – at least temporarily – by earning a victory at Merseyside rivals Everton on Saturday.
