Following a thrilling 2-2 draw with Liverpool, Fulham aim to return to winning ways in the Premier League, but given their recent negative record against Chelsea, our prediction points toward a 1-1 draw. The Cottagers showed character in their last league match, with substitute Harrison Reed scoring a wonder goal in the stoppage time to save one point. As Fulham have been scoring 1.80 goals per game at home of late, Home Team Over 0.5 goals seems like a sure bet. The likes of Iwobi, Chukwueze, and Bassey are still on international duty, while striker Rodrigo Muniz remains in the recovery room.
The Blues, on the other hand, did well to hold title-chasing Man City to a draw at Etihad Stadium on Sunday. Interim manager Callum McFarlane will asses left-back Marc Cucurella ahead of the local derby, but there are no fresh injury worries in the visiting team. You should bear in mind that Chelsea have been scoring 1.50 goals per game on the road of late. Liam Delap is widely expected to replace Joao Pedro in the starting XI following his excellent display against Man City.
Fulham and Chelsea seem to be evenly matched at the moment. Therefore, we are tempted to place our bets on Draw, with additional value on Under 2.5 goals (63% H2H) and Half-Time Draw.
This Premier League match will be played on Wednesday 7 January 2026 at 19:30.
