Gunners Aim for 6-Point Lead Over City
2 May
Summary
- Arsenal can extend their Premier League lead to six points.
- The match occurs between Champions League semifinal legs.
- Bukayo Saka is set to return for Arsenal's lineup.

Arsenal faces Fulham on Saturday, aiming to establish a six-point lead at the top of the Premier League table over Manchester City. This critical match takes place between their Champions League semifinal legs, following a 1-1 draw in Madrid.
Fulham, currently tenth, is vying for a European spot, while Arsenal seeks to capitalize on this home fixture. Despite a recent draw in Europe and a less convincing league performance against Newcastle, Arsenal's "starboy" Bukayo Saka is expected to start his first league match since the March international break.
Manager Mikel Arteta may need to manage his squad carefully, given the demands of the Champions League. Injuries to Kai Havertz, Jurriën Timber, and Mikel Merino for Arsenal, and Ryan Sessegnon, Alex Iwobi, and Kevin for Fulham, will influence team selections for both sides.
