The season in England is slowly coming to an end and the main two contenders for the title, Arsenal and Manchester City, have no right to make a mistake. The team from Manchester achieved an expectedly difficult victory against Crystal Palace, while Arsenal, who will play a city derby against Fulham as a guest, does not expect anything easy. Fulham have really had an extremely successful season behind them and the fans have a lot to be happy about. Before the start of this season, many predicted a fight for survival or even relegation from the Premier League, but the reality is completely different. They are in a high 7th place in the table with only 3 points less than the place that guarantees them participation in Europe. In the last match they lost to Brentford 3-2 and it was probably one of the worse matches they played during the season. The defense made uncharacteristic mistakes, while the middle of the field and the attack seemed completely clueless on the field. They seem to have reached their peak, but they shouldn't be written off until the end of the season. Quite a big problem for them is the series of games in which Aleksandar Mitrovic did not score a goal. The team's best scorer scored his last goal at the beginning of January and it is evident that the team needs his goals. It is very important to note that Fulham will not be able to count on one of their best players, Palninha, who will miss this match due to yellow cards. Fulham are known as a team that plays open football and it would not be a surprise if we see a lot of goals in this match.

Arsenal had an unexpectedly difficult task in the last round when they scored a goal in the last minute to win against Bournemouth after a turnaround. The way Mikel Arteta's team played after they were behind by 2 goals is perhaps the best indicator that this team has a champion mentality. They constantly put pressure on Bournemouth and throughout the match they seemed to believe that they could eventually win. After that victory, Arsenal are on a run of four consecutive victories in the league and they will be highly motivated to extend it this weekend and preserve the five-point cushion on defending champions Manchester City in second place. Fulham's style of play, in my opinion, suits Arsenal very well. Like Arsenal, Fulham is an attack-oriented team in which defensive backs also participate in offensive actions. At some point, that will certainly leave more than enough space for quick attacks by Arsenal, who certainly have players who can take advantage of even the smallest moment of inattention in the opponent's defense. I must mention that Arsenal is the best away team in the league. In addition to winning the most points away from their stadium, they are also the team that scored the most goals (25) and conceded the fewest goals (9) in 13 matches so far. Derby matches are always full of tension, especially in this part of the season, when the stakes for both teams are really high. In such matches, the experience and individual quality of the players can come to the fore, and this is certainly on Arsenal's side. We should expect a very cautious game, with potentially a large number of bookings, but I think that Arsenal will manage to find a way to win three very important points.

英格兰的这个赛季正在慢慢接近尾声，两大冠军争夺者，阿森纳和曼城，没有权利犯任何错误。这支来自曼彻斯特的球队在对阵水晶宫的比赛中取得了一场预料之中的艰难胜利，而阿森纳将作为客人与富勒姆进行一场城市德比，他们并不期待任何容易的事情。富勒姆真的有一个非常成功的赛季，球迷们有很多值得高兴的事情。在本赛季开始之前，许多人预测球队将为生存甚至降级而战，但现实完全不同。他们在积分榜上排名第七，只比保证他们参加欧洲比赛的位置少3分。在上一场比赛中，他们以3比2输给了布伦特福德，这可能是他们本赛季最糟糕的比赛之一。防守犯了一些不寻常的错误，而中场和进攻在场上似乎完全没有头绪。他们似乎已经达到了顶峰，但在本赛季结束之前，他们不应该被冲销。对他们来说，一个相当大的问题是米特罗维奇连续几场比赛都没有进球。球队最好的射手在一月初打进了他的最后一个进球，很明显球队需要他的进球。值得注意的是，富勒姆不能指望他们最好的球员之一帕尔尼尼亚，他将因为黄牌缺席这场比赛。富勒姆是一支以开放式足球著称的球队，如果我们在这场比赛中看到很多进球也就不足为奇了。

阿森纳在上一轮比赛中遇到了意想不到的困难，他们在最后一分钟打进一球，在逆转之后赢下了伯恩茅斯。米克尔·阿尔特塔的球队在落后2球后的表现或许是这支球队拥有冠军心态的最佳指标。他们不断地给伯恩茅斯施加压力，在整场比赛中，他们似乎相信他们最终会赢。在这场胜利之后，阿森纳将在联赛中取得四连胜，他们将在本周末继续取得四连胜，并保持对排名第二的卫冕冠军曼城的5分优势。富勒姆的打法，在我看来，非常适合阿森纳。像阿森纳一样，富勒姆是一支以进攻为导向的球队，防守后卫也参与进攻行动。在某种程度上，这无疑会为阿森纳的快速进攻留下足够的空间，他们当然有球员可以利用对手防守中哪怕是最微小的疏忽。我必须提到阿森纳是联赛中最好的客场球队。到目前为止，他们在13场比赛中，除了在客场获得最多积分外，还是进球数最多(25球)、失球最少(9球)的球队。德比比赛总是充满了紧张，尤其是在赛季的这个阶段，两队的赌注都很高。在这样的比赛中，球员的经验和个人素质可以脱颖而出，这当然是阿森纳这边的。我们应该期待一场非常谨慎的比赛，可能会有大量的黄牌，但我认为阿森纳会设法找到方法赢得非常重要的三分。
