Fulham vs Arsenal: Starting XIs for EPL clash confirmed | Full lists

The big news for Arsenal is that Gabriel Jesus is back in the squad for the first time since November having overcome a knee injury, the Brazilian taking a place among the substitutes.

Leandro Trossard is fit to start despite his early withdrawal against Bournemouth last weekend, with Martin Odegaard also starting having recovered from illness.

There are two changes to the team against Bournemouth, with Ben White replacing Takehiro Tomiyasu at right-back and Granit Xhaka coming back into the midfield in place of Fabio Vieira.

Marco Silva has made two changes from the Fulham team that lost 3-2 to Brentford on Monday, with Willian missing out altogether against his former side and Issa Diop dropping to the bench.

The men to start in their places are Bobby Decordova-Reid and Tosin Adarabioyo. Joao Palhinha, as we already knew, is out as he serves the final game of his suspension, with Sasa Lukic keeping his place.

Fulham look a little light on numbers, with two goalkeepers among their substitutes. Bernd Leno starts between the sticks against his old club.
