Fleetwood Vs Arsenal Preview
Despite their League Two struggles, Fleetwood have seen off the challenge of Chesterfield, Shrewsbury Town and Sheffield United in the EFL Cup without shipping a single goal. Something of which will give the Fishermen supporters a tiny bit of hope as they welcome the English champions to Highbury.
On Saturday, Arsenal beat Everton 2-0 to move level on points with Man City at the top of the Premier League table. The Gunners have enjoyed a very strong start to the campaign and beat Ipswich in the third round with youngster Max Dowman scoring twice in the 4-2 win.
Fleetwood Vs Arsenal H2H Record
As far as the Fleetwood vs Arsenal H2H record goes, this will be the first ever competitive meetings between the sides. The Fishermen have tested themselves against a number of top-flight sides in domestic cup competitions. However, they have failed to win on any of their six encounters.
Fleetwood Vs Arsenal Team News
Lewis McCann will have to sit on the Fleetwood naughty step having picked up a second EFL Cup booking of the season against Sheffield United last time out. Rhys Bennett is back from suspension and available for selection but Kane Thompson-Sommers and Andy Cannon are ruled out injured.
Meanwhile, Arsenal will be missing Bukayo Saka, William Saliba and Christos Tzolis through injury but the trio were unlikely to be risked even if they were match fit. Wonderkid Max Dowman is poised to start with Marli Salmon and Andre Harriman-Annous also in line to feature.
