Its 36 down and two to go for Arsenal as they strive to achieve immortality by completing the season without losing a match. ... And if Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger is a little apprehensive about this one, it is with good reason. ... Edwin van der Sar denied Arsenal with a series of fine saves in that game, which was the first in 47 that they had failed to score at Highbury. ...
Arsenal were on a four-match losing streak in all competitions - their worst run for 19 years - when they met Fulham at Loftus Road in the same fixture last season. ... Coleman will be sending out a team containing three ex-Arsenal players (Moritz Volz, Junichi Inamoto and Luis Boa Morte) with the objective of becoming the first to beat them this season. That would prevent Arsenal from stretching their unbeaten League run since the beginning of the campaign to a record 37 games.
If Arsenal do avoid defeat at Loftus Road they will emulate Wengers title-winning side of 2001/02 who became the first club to go through an entire Premier League campaign without losing an away match. ...
So Arsenal are now just 180 minutes away from becoming only the second club to win the championship while surviving the entire League season unbeaten. ...
Four more points will see Arsenal overtake their club record of 87 points for a Premiership campaign (2001-02), but they cannot match Manchester Uniteds Premiership record tally of 92 (1993-94) when 42 games were played, or the Red Devils record 91 points in a 20-club Premier League (1999-2000).
