Silva: Arsenal Holds Advantage Ahead of Fulham Clash

In anticipation of Fulham's Premier League match against Arsenal, manager Marco Silva acknowledged that Arsenal holds a slight 'advantage' due to their extended preparation time following their last game on March 16. Fulham, coming off a disappointing 3-0 FA Cup defeat to Crystal Palace, aims to regroup and secure a positive result against Arsenal, a team they have not lost to in their previous three encounters. Silva emphasized Arsenal's collective and individual quality, noting that their physicality and high pressing style will challenge Fulham. Despite the short turnaround and recovering from their recent loss, Silva believes his team can respond effectively if they perform at their best level. The stakes are high as Fulham seeks European qualification, positioning themselves in eighth place in the Premier League. Emile Smith Rowe, a former Arsenal player, is set to face his old teammates amidst discussions of his performance at Fulham this season.
