Arsenal comes into this season without Henry and hope Champion’s League places is not that more difficult to come by when the season ends. Their preseason form has been one of the most impressive among all the Premiership clubs I reckon and rightly so too. The addition of Eduardo and an in-form van Persie gives any defenses headache for sure. Van Persie in my opinion is definitely in the mould of being a world-beater and Fulham’s defense comprising of the not-so-classy Bocanegra and Knight should watch out here.

Fulham’s less than impressive, yet consistently abysmal away record definitely counts against them. This may be a London derby but fact is, Fulham had lost 6 of their previous 7 meetings and 5 of which were by 2 goal margins or more. Fulham brought in Kamara, Runstrom, Bouazza and Healy but none of whom are proven at this level and up against Toure and Gallas, it could be a huge ask. The loss of Brown, their destroyer could prove crucial too as Fabregas and Rosicky conjure their magic in midfield.

The odds are certainly stacked against Fulham. Even without Henry, Arsenal should make their home advantage count and wrap up an easy win here. Arsenal to win 3-0.
