12th January 2023 – 21:00, Craven Cottage, London
Fulham will take on Chelsea in the postponed match of the Premier League 7th round on Thursday evening. The home side wants to extend its winning streak, while the visitors seek a getaway from the poor form.
Fulham Preview & Team News
Following on from their previous result, Fulham will be hoping for more of the same after the 2-0 FA Cup victory over Hull City. It was the Cottagers’ fourth straight win in all competitions after being successful in the Premier League three times in a row. They have claimed a sum of 10 during that period and have conceded a total of five. Nonetheless, we will have to wait and see whether that trend will be sustained here in this game. Going into this encounter, Fulham has not beaten Chelsea in their previous 20 matches in the league. A shocking run, it really is. Nevertheless, the hosts are full of confidence, and they hope to break that terrible streak on Thursday evening.
Chelsea Preview & Team News
Since being defeated in their last game at the hands of Manchester City in FA Cup action, Chelsea and their traveling supporters will be hoping that they can get a better result in this one. It is not the only concern for the Blues since they sit in a disappointing 10th place in the Premier league table. They celebrated only one win in the previous eight rounds, and the away side is far from Champions League qualification. The Blues have had trouble finding the back of the opponent’s net this season, while their defense has not been tight enough. Chelsea boss Graham Potter has a number of players out of action. Edouard Mendy (Shoulder Injury), Christian Pulisic (Knee Problems), Raheem Sterling (Hamstring Injury), Ben Chilwell (Hamstring Injury), Wesley Fofana (Knee Injury), Reece James (Knee Injury), N’Golo Kanté (Hamstring Injury), and Armando Broja (Cruciate Ligament Rupture) miss out here.
Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction
The momentum is on Fulham’s side, and although they are slight underdogs, we think they can do well in this game. Therefore, we will support them to remain undefeated against the London rival.
Goals Market Prediction
Fulham has been involved in many high-scoring games this season, and that trend might continue. We believe both teams should be able to find the back of the rival’s net in this encounter.
