Prediction: 1-1
Chelsea
There will be fireworks when Fulham and Chelsea square off against each other in an eagerly-awaited London derby. The Cottagers suffered a 1-0 loss to Bournemouth on Monday evening, but it has to be noted that they failed to turn their dominance into goals in the second half. Raul Jimenez is pushing for a recall to the starting XI, while Reiss Nelson remains on the sidelines with injury.
The Blues, on the other hand, dropped two points in a 2-2 draw with relegation-threatened Ipswich Town. As both Chelsea and Fulham are eager to return to winning ways in the Premier League, there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. In the first half of the season, Fulham defeated Chelsea 2-1 at Stamford Bridge, which definitely supports our earlier betting prediction. The likes of Marc Guiu, Wesley Fofana, and Romeo Lavia miss out with injuries for the away team.
Highlighted Player (Alex Iwobi):
Alex Iwobi is one of the most talented African footballers. The Nigerian football player was born in Lagos on May 3, 1996, but he moved to Arsenal at the age of 8. In 2015 he made his first-team debut for the Gunners, starting in a 3-0 loss to Sheffield Wednesday in the League Cup.
Speaking of his Premier League debut, Alex Iwobi played his first game for Arsenal in a 3-0 victory over Swansea City in October, 2015. The pacey winger played for England at youth level, but he eventually went on to play for Nigeria. Iwobi made his senior debut with the Super Eagles on October 8, 2015, coming as a substitute for Ahmed Musa in a 2-0 loss to DR Congo.
On October 7, 2017 the Arsenal footballer scored the winner for Nigeria against Zambia (1-0) which helped the Super Eagles book their place at the 2018 FIFA World Cup finals. Speaking of his individual trophies, Alex Iwobi was named CAF Young Player of the Year 2016.
Highlighted Team (Chelsea):
Over the years Chelsea have established themselves as one of the dominant forces in the English Premier League. Roberto Di Matteo helped the team win their first ever Champions League trophy (2011/2012), but it has to be noted that they were more than fortunate to beat Bayern Munich in the title game.
Chelsea have been playing at Stamford Bridge since 1876 and they are a real force to be reckoned with at home. The Blues have won seven FA Cups, five League Cups, two UEFA Cup Winners’ Cups and the UEFA Europa League. Rafael Benitez was in charge of the team that faced Benfica in the 2012/2013 Europa League final, with Branislav Ivanovic scoring the winner for the Blues in the title clash.
After lifting the 2014/2015 Premier League trophy, the Blues largely struggled in the next campaign, which saw Jose Mourinho’s second spell with the club come to an end, and Antoine Conte went over to take the reigns for the 2016/2017 season.
