As for Arsenal, they can regain their five-point lead at the top of the table after second-placed Manchester City narrowly beat Crystal Palace. The Gunners are going for their first league title since 2004 and almost slipped up against relegation-threatened Bournemouth. Mikel Arteta's side went 2-0 down before a spirited comeback saw them claim their fourth successive victory. Arsenal made six changes for their Europa League game against Sporting CP midweek, showing that the Premier League is their main priority.

Fulham will overtake Newcastle United and go level on points with fifth-placed Liverpool with a win against Arsenal. Marco Silva's men will be looking to bounce back after a disappointing defeat against Brentford in their previous fixture, a result that ended their four-game unbeaten run. However, collecting all three points will be difficult, with Fulham failing to beat Arsenal in the league for over 10 years. They are winless in their last nine meetings with Arsenal (drawing two, losing seven) since a 2-1 home win in January 2012.
