We simulated Fulham vs Arsenal to get a Premier League score
Arsenal and Fulham go head-to-head in the Premier League on Sunday, so we simulated the clash to see what could happen

Arsenal will be looking to return to their top form and stay hot on the heels of league leaders Liverpool when they face London rivals Fulham on Sunday.

A disappointing performance saw Arsenal fall to a 2-0 loss at home to West Ham in their last outing, with the defeat leaving the Gunners in second place and two points behind Liverpool in first. One win in the last four Premier League games has seen Mikel Arteta's side slip out of first place, but Arsenal will be hoping they can rediscover their winning form on Sunday.

Fulham have lost their last three Premier League games without scoring, a bit of a surprise after winning 5-0 in back-to-back games before the losing run. The last meeting between the two sides earlier this season saw the Gunners drop two valuable points, with a late goal from Palhinha holding Arsenal to a 2-2 draw at the Emirates Stadium.

We simulated Fulham vs Arsenal to get a score prediction

To complete this simulation, we used EA FC 24 and updated the squads with the latest injuries and suspensions.

We predict that Fulham could line up in a 4-3-3 formation, with their starting XI as follows: Leno; Castagne, Adarabioyo, Bassey, Robinson; Palhinha, Cairney; Wilson, Pereira, Iwobi; Jimenez.

We predict that Arsenal could set up in a 4-3-3 formation, with their line-up as follows: Raya; White, Saliba, Gabriel, Kiwior; Rice, Odegaard, Havertz; Saka, Jesus, Trossard.

Some slick passing moves in the opening 45 minutes saw Arsenal get in some dangerous positions, but some poor finishing from Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Jesus saw the Gunners fail to score in a dominant first half. Fulham started to threaten the Arsenal goal as the game went on, but an error at the back allowed Arteta's side to snatch the lead in the 67th minute.

As the Fulham defence passed from left to right, Calvin Bassey's pass across the pitch was loose, allowing Jesus to intercept and surge towards goal. As the Brazilian entered the box he took aim, and his effort beat Bernd Leno to send the Gunners 1-0 ahead.

Martin Odegaard was unlucky not to double the lead when he had two long-range efforts hit the post in the final 15 minutes, but a strong defensive display saw the Gunners see out an important three points at Craven Cottage.
