📊 Form Guide

Fulham
LWLLWL
Fulham will be wanting a better result here after a 1-0 Premier League loss in their previous game against Bournemouth.
In that match, Fulham had 59% possession and 12 shots at goal with 7 of them on target. At the other end, Bournemouth had 12 attempts on goal with 3 on target. Antoine Semenyo (1') was the scorer for Bournemouth.
It’s not been often in recent times where Fulham have kept a clean sheet. The reality is that Fulham have seen their defence breached in 5 of their previous 6 matches, leaking 10 goals on the way.
Heading into this fixture, Fulham are undefeated in their last 2 home league matches.
Chelsea
LWDWDL ⚖
Since suffering a loss in their previous game against Legia Warsaw in Conference League action, Chelsea will be aiming to make amends here.
In that game, Chelsea managed 70% possession and 16 attempts at goal with 8 on target. The scorer for Chelsea was Marc Cucurella (33'). On the other side, Legia Warsaw got 13 shots at goal with 5 of them on target. Tomáš Pekhart (10') and Steve Kapuadi (53') scored for Legia Warsaw.
A series of outstanding displays from the Chelsea defence has seen the number of goals they’ve conceded amounting to 3 from their previous 6 outings in total. In that period of time, their own forwards have managed to score 7. Historical results aside, we’ll just have to find out whether such a trend shall be maintained in this upcoming match.
Heading into this fixture, Chelsea are without an away win for the past 8 league games. It's not a good run at all.
↔️ Head to head
Looking over their most recent head to head meetings stretching back to 01/05/2021 shows that Fulham have won 2 of these games & Chelsea 3, with the tally of drawn games being 1.
11 goals were scored between the two sides in this period, with 4 for The Cottagers and 7 for The Blues. That’s an average goals per game of 1.83.
The last league encounter featuring these sides was Premier League match day 18 on 26/12/2024 and the score finished Chelsea 1-2 Fulham.
On that occasion, Chelsea had 47% possession and 12 shots at goal with 8 of them on target. Their only player on the scoresheet was Cole Palmer (16').
Fulham got 14 attempts on goal with 7 of them on target. Harry Wilson (82') and Rodrigo Muniz (95') scored.
The match was refereed by Samuel Barrott.
📰 Team News: Fulham
There aren’t many personnel worries, with just the sole fitness concern for the Fulham gaffer Marco Silva to be concerned with from an otherwise complete set of players. Reiss Nelson (Hamstring injury) is out of contention.
It looks as if The Cottagers should use the 4-2-3-1 system for this one, utilising Bernd Leno, Kenny Tete, Joachim Andersen, Calvin Bassey, Antonee Robinson, Sander Berge, Sasa Lukic, Ryan Sessegnon, Andreas Pereira, Alex Iwobi and Raul Jimenez.
📰 Team News: Chelsea
Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca has multiple availability issues to deal with. Aarón Anselmino (unknown injury), Marc Guiu (Hamstring injury), Omari Kellyman (surgery), David Datro Fofana (Knee injury) and Wesley Fofana (surgery) won’t be making appearances.
We are inclined to think that The Blues could decide to make use of a 4-2-3-1 lineup, starting the game with Robert Sanchez, Malo Gusto, Trevoh Chalobah, Levi Colwill, Marc Cucurella, Enzo Fernandez, Moises Caicedo, Noni Madueke, Cole Palmer, Pedro Neto and Nicolas Jackson.
🔮 Prediction
Our feeling is that Chelsea and Fulham could both end up scoring in a what should be a good tussle with little between the two teams.
Let’s see how it plays out, but a draw is looking likely to us. We’re therefore expecting a hard-fought score draw at the end of this one.
