Fulham vs Arsenal: Arsenal's expected line-up and formation | Premier League 2018/19

Arsenal will be hoping to continue their decent start in the Premier League when they travel away to Fulham this Sunday. Unai Emery's side has started the season in decent form and will look to add another three points to their total when they travel to Fulham at Craven Cottage.

Let's look at the formation, as well as the personnel Arsenal boss Unai Emery is most likely to opt for.

Unai Emery will most likely opt for a 4-2-3-1 formation.

---

Goalkeeper: Bernd Leno

Bernd Leno

The summer signing Bernd Leno is expected to start against Fulham on Sunday at Craven Cottage following an injury to Petr Cech, who is expected to be out for 3-4 weeks.

Defenders: Nacho Monreal, Rob Holding, Shkodran Mustafi, Hector Bellerin

Shkodran Mustafi

Nacho Monreal will be expected to play in the left back position for Arsenal against Fulham at Craven Cottage on Sunday.

Shkodran Mustafi is an experienced Premier League defender and will once again he will have to lead the Arsenal back four by example if the Gunners have intentions of earning a clean sheet against Fulham.

Rob holding will most likely partner Shkodran Mustafi at centre-back. The defender has done reasonably well when he has been given the opportunity and he will be looking to cement his place further in the Arsenal starting line up when he takes the field against Fulham on Sunday.

Hector Bellerin will be playing at right back for Arsenal against Fulham. His blistering pace could be unsettling for Fulham's Defenders.

Midfielders: Lucas Torreira, Granit Xhaka, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Aaron Ramsey, Mesut Ozil

Magic touch! - Ozil

Lucas Torreira is likely to start for Arsenal at Craven Cottage. Torreira is a player expected to add the combative spirit in the midfield which Arsenal has been lacking since the days of Patrick Vieira. He could be the most vital player for Arsenal, especially when it comes to controlling the midfield against Fulham.

Granit Xhaka is likely to start alongside Lucas Torreira, and will most likely play the role of the destroyer for Arsenal in midfield.

When it comes to attacking options, Unai Emery will most likely play Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang on the left side of the midfield, although he was very prolific when he played in the striker position last year. With his outrageous pace and skills, he can cause havoc for the Fulham defence .

Aaron Ramsey will most likely be given the number 10 role against Fulham on Sunday at Craven Cottage, regardless of his present contract situation at the club.

Mesut Ozil will most likely be playing on the right side of midfield following his decent outing against Watford where managed to get himself on the scoresheet as well. He will be taking his place in the starting lineup for Arsenal against Fulham.

Striker: Alexandre Lacazette

Alexandre Lacazette

Alexandre Lacazette is likely to lead the line for Arsenal following a decent start to the season. He is a proven goalscorer, and in all likelihood will get the nod to play as a striker against Fulham at Craven Cottage on Sunday.

Aside his goal-scoring prowess, he is very speedy and has got good dribbling attributes as well. Furthermore, he also presses the opposition and has the ability to win the ball back high up the field, this could prove beneficial for Arsenal.

A fully fit and confident Alexandre Lacazette can trouble the best of defences in the world. Therefore he should start for Arsenal in the striker position against the Cottagers on Sunday.
