Arsenal have kicked off their season strongly with two wins, though both performances could have been improved. Mikel Arteta will certainly want more from his players if they are to challenge for the Premier League title again, but six points from six is all that matters.

Fulham, meanwhile, impressed with an away victory at Everton on the opening day, but couldn't keep up that level of performance as they welcomed Brentford to Craven Cottage last weekend. A 3-0 loss means Marco Silva will be demanding they recover quickly, though doing so at the Emirates could prove a tall order.

Kick-off is at 3pm BST. Make sure you know how to watch the Premier League wherever you are.

Team news

Arsenal are without new signing Jurrien Timber for a number of months, though the full extent of his knee injury isn't yet known. Gabriel Jesus will be out until at least September. Takehiro Tomiyasu is also suspended after being sent off against Crystal Palace on Monday night. 

For Fulham, Tim Ream is in the same situation as Tomiyasu, after getting a red card against Brentford last weekend. Willian is not fit enough to return and misses out. 

Arsenal XI: Ramsdale; Partey, White, Saliba, Kiwior; Odegaard, Rice, Havertz; Saka, Trossard, Martinelli.

Fulham XI: Leno; Tete, Diop, Bassey, Robinson; Palhinha, Lukic; Reid, Andreas, Wilson; Jimenez.

VPN guide

Use a VPN to watch Premier League football from outside your country

If you’re out of the country for a Premier League fixture, then you won't be able to watch on your domestic streaming service as usual. The broadcaster knows where you are because of your IP address (boo!) and blocks you from watching it. You can use a VPN to get around that, though, without resorting to illegal feeds you’ve found on Reddit.

A Virtual Private Network (VPN), assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs, creates a private connection between your device and t'internet, meaning the service can’t work out where you are and will let you watch. And all the info going between is entirely encrypted, anonymous and safe – and that's a result.

There are plenty of good-value options out there. For the Premier League, FourFourTwo currently recommends:
