Fulham vs Arsenal Preview
Arsenal has four victories and one draw from their last five matches, which should have Gunners fans happy. Their mid-week draw against Everton at the Emirates will not be the worst of results, but Arsene Wenger's side knows they can not afford to drop more points at Craven Cottage.
Meetings against Fulham tend to offer up a lot of goals, making Saturday's match likely to be a very entertaining match. Both sides have earned two victories in this fixture from the last five matches, with a draw in between.
Staying on track against Martin Jol's side, which does not have much to play for will not be easy, as we all saw in their first meeting this season.
Fulham vs Chelsea Preview
Team News
Ashkan Dejagah, Damien Duff and Mahamadou Diarra are all out for Fulham. Steve Sidwell is suspended. Oriol Romeu, Ashley Cole and Gary Cahill are all out for Chelsea.
Analysis
Fulham’s form has slightly dipped recently. They drew against Villa in their last match and lost to Newcastle prior to that. They are a respectable tenth in the table. Fulham, capable of scaring any side, will relish the challenge called Chelsea. Chelsea will come into this one slightly disheartened following the loss against Manchester City in the FA Cup semifinals. The Blues will be desperate to tie up a spot in the top four in the table to secure Champions League football for next season. Overall, this encounter should be a highly exciting one.

FA Cup: ‘Prodigal son’ Dimitar Berbatov returns to the Theater of Dreams
In the last few years, there is no player who managed to delight and frustrate the Manchester United fans in equal measure than Dimitar Berbatov. While his supporters swear by his obvious talent and great footballing intelligence, his critics point to his lackadaisical attitude and languid style and declare him as a misfit into the Man United setup.
In his four seasons at Old Trafford, Berbatov managed to rack up 56 goals in 149 appearances. Those statistics do not indicate Berbatov's Old Trafford tenure as a flop, whatever might his critics say.
His performances in the 3-2 win against traditional rivals Liverpool and 5 goals against 7-1 win against their Lancashire neighbours Blackburn Rovers outline the splendid skill and abundance of talent that Berbatov possesses.

Chelsea vs Fulham Preview
Analysis
It has been quite some time since any of these two sides tasted victory. Rafael Benitez would argue that he needs to win most on Wednesday. The former Liverpool head coach received a hostile reception by home fans on his Chelsea debut last weekend. Only success on the pitch can help Roberto Di Matteo’s heir to tone down the Blues’ furious supporters.
Meanwhile, also under intense pressure is Fernando Torres. The ex-Atletico Madrid star has gone 559 minutes without scoring a goal in the English Premier League. This is definitely not the kind of statistics that Russian owner Roman Abramovich wants to observe from his £50M signing.
Arsenal vs Fulham Preview
Arsenal found themselves leading 0-2 against a very good Schalke side in the Arena Auf Schalke on Tuesday. The lead was extremely fortunate. The first goal was definitely offside. Even the second goal wasn’t exactly onside. Arsenal’s overall performance was poor. The German side dominated the game and Arsenal eventually caved in and conceded twice.Theo Walcott had a great chance to gift Arsenal the lead. However, had he scored, the win would have been a hugely fortunate one. Arsenal was thoroughly outplayed on the night. One more performance like that will give Arsene Wenger headaches of unimaginable proportions.

Liverpool transfer news: Clint Dempsey would succeed at Anfield, says McBride
Brian McBride spoke to Goal.com this week as Clint Dempsey remains determined to leave Craven Cottage. The 29-year-old hit a personal record by scoring 23 goals for Fulham in 46 appearances last season.

“Fortunate” Manchester United finally in pole position ahead of Man City – EPL
Manchester United 1-0 Fulham – It took a lone goal by Rooney and a controversial penalty decision by referee Michael Oliver at Old Trafford to fire the Red Devils three points clear off rivals Manchester City at the top of the English Premier League table on Monday night. Michael Carrick’s late tackle on Danny Murphy in the box, which went unpunished, was too blatant for defender Johnny Evans to deny the fact that his team got very lucky. Sky Sports quoted the Northern Ireland defender as saying:
“Yeah, you have a quick look to the referee. He’s waved it away but having seen it back again I think he could’ve given a penalty for it. Yeah, I suppose so [the win was a lucky one].”
Three fierce EPL days – from Chelsea vs Spurs to Manchester United vs Fulham

Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur will both be looking to get back to winning ways. The Blues had a really tough time at the Etihad Stadium and they lost out only just. Spurs, meanwhile, proved shaky again as Stoke City held them to a 1-1 draw.

Late collapse costs Arsenal in 2-1 loss at Fulham
Laurent Koscielny headed the Gunners into a first half lead, before Steve Sidwell and Bobby Zamora netted during the last five minutes to hand Fulham a dramatic victory.If Arsene Wenger’s New Year’s resolution involved not blaming referees for defeats, then it did not last two days as the Gunners boss fumed over the dismissal of Johan Djourou during the second half.
Arsenal dominated possession from the outset, and created early chances that were not converted by Theo Walcott and Gervinho.
Gervinho was lively during the opening exchanges, and had a penalty appeal denied when he was brought down by former Gunner Philippe Senderos.
