Chelsea vs Fulham Prediction & Match Preview
Chelsea vs Fulham
English Premier League
Date: 3 February 2023, Friday
Kick-off at 20:00 UK / 21:00 CET
Venue: Stamford Bridge (London).
Chelsea and Fulham will raise the curtain on Matchday No 22 in English Premier League on Friday evening at Stamford Bridge.
The Blues will be looking for revenge on the 2-1 defeat to the same rival less than a month ago at Craven Cottage.
They will enter the tie in somewhat higher spirits after back-to-back clean sheets in the matches against Crystal Palace and Liverpool.
Graham Potter will still need time to bed in all of the new arrivals as Chelsea have been the most active team on the market in the recently-closed winter transfer window.
The Blues may have just given up on this season, being as low as 9th in the Premier League standings. Nevertheless, their matches could be fun and entertaining to watch with all the new signings set to feature sooner or later.
Fulham, on the other side, suffered back-to-back 0-1 defeats to Newcastle and Tottenham in the previous two league rounds.
They were also in action last weekend in the FA Cup, playing only a 1-1 draw at home to lower-division side Sunderland.
The Cottagers have had big issues with the attacking efficiency in the recent matches. They are now set to face an in-form defensive line of Chelsea’s and we are not quite confident in their big attacking evening on Friday at Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea looked somewhat more organized defensively in the previous two league games, especially the 21st round’s clash against Liverpool at Anfield. They have enough firepower up front to exploit Fulham’s back line which makes the home win to nil the way to go here at the odds of 2.50.
