Fulham vs Chelsea: Derby Rivals Clash as Blues Chase Europe & Cottagers Dream of History

Craven Cottage plays host to a crucial London derby on Sunday, April 20, as Fulham take on Chelsea with both clubs eyeing a late-season push for European qualification.

Fulham, unbeaten in eight of their last ten home games, aim to complete a first-ever league double over their rivals. Chelsea, reeling from poor away form, must rediscover their rhythm to keep their top-five hopes alive.

🔵Fulham Dreaming of Europe and History | Home Win = 2.93💵

Marco Silva's men sit ninth with 48 points and are just five points from equalling their best-ever Premier League tally, 53 points, in the 08/09 season. Fulham have a solid record against top-six opposition, earning 14 points from nine such games this season.

Despite home inconsistency, they’ve only lost two of their last 10 league games at the Craven Cottage. A win on Sunday could push them closer to a record seventh-place finish set back in 2009.

Chelsea Players Celebrating Goal

⚪Chelsea Hope to Fix Struggling Away Form| Away Win = 2.53💵

Chelsea’s European dreams are hanging by a thread after slipping to sixth place following Newcastle’s big midweek win. Enzo Maresca’s side has now gone eight Premier League away games without a win.

Their 0-0 draw at Brentford and another slip-up against Ipswich last week show their struggle for rhythm mostly outside Stamford Bridge.

The Blues have lost four of their last five away league fixtures, and with this one coming against a side they’ve already lost to, Maresca and his lads will have a tough day, but with their quality, one they should be able to handle.

🗝️Key Players & Team News📰:

Chelsea remain without Wesley Fofana and Marc Guiu. Romeo Lavia is close to a return and may feature from the bench. Jadon Sancho should keep his spot after his bright showing against Ipswich.
