Arsenal boss, Mikel Arteta, has disclosed that his defenders must be ready to checkmate every move of Fulham striker, Aleksandar Mitrović ahead of today’s Premier League game.
Arteta said that Mitrović, who has scored three Premier League goals so far this season, is efficient in front of the goal areas.
Arsenal will on Saturday evening host Fulham in a Premier League tie at the Emirates Stadium.

The Gunners head to the game after beating Bournemouth 3-0 in their last Premier League game.
Speaking on Mitrović, Arteta said during Friday’s pre-match press conference, “When he’s around the box, as you can see last season, he scored 43 goals in the league and he already has three this season, that tells you the efficiency that he has in these areas.
“He’s one of the main threats of Fulham.”
