Arsenal prepare to entertain Fulham at Emirates Stadium at lunchtime on Sunday, aiming to preserve their record of never having lost at home to the visitors. The Gunners have won an impressive 19 of the 21 meetings between the two sides, drawing the other 2.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Emirates Stadium was less than a year ago, in April 2007, with Arsenal running out comfortable 3-1 winners in a Premiership match.
