Premier League action resumes this weekend as Arsenal welcome Fulham to the Emirates Stadium for a highly anticipated London derby, Soccernet.ng reports.

​There is plenty at stake in this Gameweek 35 fixture, with both sides desperate for points in the final stretch of the campaign.

​The Gunners are currently locked in a fierce title race with Manchester City. Arsenal sit at the summit of the table, holding a three-point lead over the Cityzens, though the defending champions still have a game in hand.

​Fulham, meanwhile, occupy 10th place with 48 points. They sit just two points behind 6th-placed Brighton, who currently hold a Europa League qualification spot. With European football within reach, the Cottagers will be motivated to pull off an upset in North London.

​What Time is Arsenal vs. Fulham?

​Following their grueling but enthralling Champions League semifinal clash against Atletico Madrid on Wednesday, the Gunners have been handed a late kickoff to allow for recovery.

​The match between Arsenal and Fulham is scheduled for Saturday at 5:30 PM Nigerian time.

Who Are The Nigerians Involved In This Game?

Arsenal vs Fulham should feature six Nigerians, but it will be five instead because of the thigh injury to Super Eagles star Alex Iwobi. Arsenal's Nigerian stars are Eberechi Eze, Bukayo Saka, and Noni Madueke. And since coach Mikel Arteta will likely rotate his squad, all three of them are expected to feature.

Meanwhile, Fulham have Super Eagles stalwart Calvin Bassey, who is one of the best in the Premier League. Then, they also have Samuel Chukwueze, who will likely start in the absence of Iwobi.
