Match Information

Craven Cottage, Fulham, England

English Premier League

Key Stat: Fulham have drawn each of their last five Premier League matches.
Expert Verdict: An enforced break from Premier League action did not stop Fulham stretching their run of draws in the competition to five matches. Chelsea have taken just one point from their last three matches, meanwhile, but - with Fulham still re-finding their fitness – the Blues are favourites for this derby match.

Our prediction

Chelsea

After an excellent draw with Tottenham Hotspur last time out, despite the match only being arranged at late notice after Fulham’s self-isolation period ended, Scott Parker now faces another former team – a derby against Chelsea. The ninth-placed Blues need a win to get back on track in the Premier League, with this fixture taking place on January 16 and getting underway at 17:30 local time.
