Three weeks after Fulham beat Chelsea 2-1 at Craven Cottage, the two intercity rivals meet again. This time, the match is taking place at Chelsea’s Stamford Bridge and this time, the Blues need to take things way more seriously.
Before Betting on Chelsea vs Fulham
Since American businessman Todd Boehly took over, Chelsea have spent more than $533 million on transfers. During the winter transfer window, the Blues signed several talented players, most notably, Mykhailo Mudryk and Joao Felix (on a loan deal).
Although he hasn’t scored on his debut, Mudryk was very impressive in the 36 minutes he spent on the pitch against Liverpool some two weeks ago. Meanwhile, Felix made his Chelsea debut in their first duel with Fulham, but it did not go well.
In fact, Felix is the one to blame for the 2-1 defeat. Everything was going alright for Chelsea before he got a red card. Because of this incident, the Portuguese forward won’t play on Friday, but the problem is that neither will several of his colleagues from the attacking department – Raheem Sterling, Armando Broja, and Christian Pulisic.
Can Chelsea get their revenge even without these guys on the field?

Fulham scored twice against Chelsea the last time they played. We don’t think they can do the same again. In fact, we think the Blues are going to dominate this game, not letting the Cottagers make too many goal chances.
That said, a low-scoring affair is expected, although we think we’ll see a goal or two at Stamford Bridge. And Chelsea will be the team to score them.
Pick: Chelsea to win and under 2.5 goals
