Six reasons why Arsenal will beat Fulham on Saturday
Premier League, Sat, 5.30pm, Setanta Sports 1, Free £30 bet here
Occasional badge kisser Emmanuel Adebayor may have just signed a sparkling new contract but he’ll have to at least start pretending that he’s interested if he plans to win back the hoards of disenchanted Arsenal fans. He was definitely right to bring back the lucky braids and will silence the boo boys with a goal or two in an Arsenal win on Saturday. Here’s why…
1. Arsenal have won twelve of their fourteen Premier League meetings with Fulham, including each of the last three.
2. Fulham have only ever beaten Arsenal once in Premier League history – a 2-1 win at Craven Cottage in 2006.
3. Wenger’s men have scored an impressive twenty two times in their last eight contests with Fulham, an average of 2.75 goals a game.
4. Fulham have failed to score in five of their last six home Premier League encounters with Arsenal.
5. Fulham lost seven and drew one of their eight contests with the Premier League’s top four last season.
6. Hodgson’s men had a dreadful home record last term, winning just five of their nineteen league contests at the Cottage.
Some more terribly useful betting information…
» Seven of the last eight meetings between the sides have seen more than 2.5 goals, including each of the last four at Craven Cottage.
» Emmanuel Adebayor has scored four times in his last three appearances against Fulham.
» Only one of their fourteen Premier League encounters have ended all square – a goalless draw at Highbury in 2003.
» The last six contests between the sides have seen eight goals scored in the final ten minutes.
» None of the last seven meetings have been goalless at the break, with Arsenal scoring a first half goal on six occasions.
