Chelsea – Fulham

Chelsea head into the fixture on the fourth‑place spot with seven points from four games, having scored ten and conceded nine. Their opponents, Fulham, languish at the foot of the table in 18th place, managing only a single point and a goal difference of minus three after four matches. The Blues will be looking to extend their two‑win, one‑draw run, while the Cottagers will be desperate for their first victory of the campaign. Historically the two sides have met frequently, but Chelsea’s recent form gives them a clear edge as they aim to climb further up the league ladder.
