Arsenal can set new club record with victory over Fulham | OneFootball

Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal have the opportunity to make history on Saturday evening when they host Fulham at the Emirates Stadium, with a victory set to give the Gunners a new club record for the most wins in a single season during the Premier League era.

Arsenal currently sit on 39 wins across all competitions in 2025/26, level with the benchmark set by Arsene Wenger’s side during the 2002/03 campaign—a season in which the Gunners retained the FA Cup and finished runners-up to Manchester United in the Premier League.

A win over Fulham tonight would move Arteta’s side to 40, taking them beyond that mark alone for the first time in the club’s Premier League history.

What gives this record its significance is the breadth of its accumulation. Arteta’s squad has competed in the Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup, and EFL Cup this season, winning consistently across all competitions.

This is not a total inflated by a fortunate cup run; it reflects a relentlessness rarely seen from an English club over a full campaign.

To match Wenger’s 2002/03 side in that regard is no small feat. That Arsenal team was built around some of the finest players of a generation—Thierry Henry, Patrick Vieira, Robert Pires—and delivered silverware while pushing Manchester United to the final weeks of the title race. Arteta’s side now stands level, just 90 minutes away from standing alone.

Fulham arrive at the Emirates in decent form and with a point to prove, yet the history of this fixture offers little comfort to the visitors.

Arsenal have never lost a home league match against Fulham in 32 attempts, a record that stands as the longest unbeaten home run by one club against another in English Football League history.

Should Arsenal secure all three points tonight, the record is unlikely to stop at 40. The Champions League semi-final second leg against Atletico Madrid at the Emirates and further Premier League fixtures are still to come before the end of the current campaign.
