The Premier League action resumes this Saturday. Chelsea will be the early game this weekend, as they take on local rivals Fulham. A lot of eyes will be on the Blues this weekend, as board members made the decision to fire Thomas Tuchel after a midweek defeat in the Champions League.
Before Betting On Fulham vs Chelsea
Chelsea kick off the Premier League weekend on Saturday, as they look for a second domestic victory in a row. Meanwhile, Fulham will be looking to bounce back after suffering defeat in their previous league fixture against Tottenham Hotspur.
The head to head record doesn’t make pleasant reading for the home side this weekend, as they have picked up just seven victories in the previous 74 league meetings between the sides. Chelsea also have a very good record against their local rivals, as they have lost just one time in the previous 30 Premier League fixtures between the sides. The Blues are also unbeaten in their previous 20 league fixtures against the Cottagers.
Fulham has a poor record in London derbies in the Premier League, as they have won just once in the previous 27. However, that victory did come just a month ago, as they overcame Brentford to pick up a 3-2 win. Chelsea’s away record in London derbies is very strong, as they have picked up eight wins from the previous nine. Their only defeat came against West Ham last season, but they have kept clean sheets in seven of their recent victories.
