ARSENAL will be eager to continue their immaculate start to the season THIS SATURDAY when they welcome London rivals Fulham to the Emirates.
The Gunners cruised to a comfortable 3-0 win over Premier League new boys Bournemouth last weekend.
And French wonderkid William Saliba stole the headlines once again having scored a spectacular goal with his weaker foot.
However, the Cottagers have enjoyed an undefeated return to England's top division, which includes holding Liverpool to a draw.
But Marco Silva's men will feel a little dejected as they come into this match off the back of a shock EFL Cup defeat to League Two side Crawley Town.

However, Gunners fans will be itching to see summer signing Fabio Vieira who is yet to be get some Premier League minutes under his belt.
Reiss Nelson continues to be the only long-term absentee and the Englishman is not expected to return from his thigh injury until October at the earliest.
Elsewhere, Marco Silva's first eleven should be relatively fresh having rested a lot of his key members for the loss against Crawley Town.
