26/12 Today’s Football Predictions: Chelsea vs Fulham + 9 more tips

Betting Predictions

As two of the West London teams that have played in the English Premier League for the longest periods, Chelsea and Fulham are very familiar with one another. This particular West London derby has been played more frequently than any other, but it is unsurprising that Chelsea has been the dominant force in this matchup. Sports Mole examines the two teams’ head-to-head record and past encounters.

Head-to-Head

The teams played 15 games against one another. The most recent game, which finished with a 2:1 score, was played on December 11, 24. Ismaily prevailed in four of the head-to-head encounters. Additionally, the Haras El Hodoud won seven games. The four matches were also tied. The teams’ goal differential, as determined by head-to-head statistics, is 12–15.

Team News

Marc Cucurella is back from suspension, which should result in a more conventional back four for Chelsea following some defensive moving that saw Malo Gusto move to the left and Axel Disasi take over at right-back for Everton.

Reece James and Wesley Fofana are still sidelined with hamstring ailments, but Romeo Lavia may be ready to return after Maresca stated that the Everton match would be too soon for the Belgian midfielder.

Benoit Badiashile is also out, but Tosin Adarabioyo has replaced him admirably. On Sunday, he averted a likely goal by making a flying stop on Iliman Ndiaye of Everton.

Emile Smith Rowe of Fulham is a serious doubt for this match after suffering a leg injury that kept him out of the tie with Southampton. Silva may also be without his starting midfield because Sasa Lukic and Sander Berge are also questionable.
Josh King, a teenager who made his Premier League debut on Sunday, may be replaced by Andreas Pereira, who will at least return from suspension. Pereira did well in his debut.

Both Reiss Nelson and Kenny Tete have recently suffered injuries that will keep them out of action until at least February. Raul Jimenez and Rodrigo Muniz, who entered the game against the Saints, will be chosen upfront.

Verdict

Tip Chelsea to Win❌

Reason

After being frustrated by an impenetrable Everton, Chelsea will fancy their chances of returning to winning ways against a more open Fulham side, even if they may have more to worry about defensively. Fulham have proven themselves to be a competitive outfit since returning to the top flight under Silva, but their record against Chelsea remains woeful, and their winless streak could extend to 20 here at the Bridge.

Tip: Over 2.5 Goals✅

Reason

Chelsea, eager to bounce back from their draw against Everton, are likely to dominate possession and create more scoring chances.
