Fulhamvs.Arsenal

The Gunners relied on their set-piece excellence to see off Manchester United on Wednesday evening, as Jurrien Timber and William Saliba's goals from corners secured a 2-0 win over Ruben Amorim's side.

Liverpool's draw with Newcastle United on the same evening means that the Gunners have cut the deficit to the league leaders to seven points, although they have slipped to third in the Premier League table thanks to Chelsea's superior goal difference.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Arsenal's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their clash with the Cottagers.
