Granted, Chelsea might have fared better had debutant Joao Felix not been sent off just before the hour mark. Silva will instruct his side to keep things tight in the opening 45 minutes. The Blues have dominated this west London derby down the years. Chelsea will strive to make a quick start in front of their own supporters, but the evidence of the campaign to date suggests they are not particularly effective at flying out of the traps. Their previous defeat by their local rivals came way back in 2006. Fulham will have their hands full in trying to keep the Ukrainian quiet. Once released, your Bet Credits will be held in your account balance and are non-withdrawable. It is an issue the club sought to address in the winter window, bringing in the likes of Felix, Noni Madueke, Mykhailo Mudryk and David Datro Fofana in a bid to bolster their attack. Only time will tell whether the Blues have overdone it – Fulham can vouch for the fact that signing too many players can at times be problematic – but in the short-term at least, it should give the club a lift. Chelsea splashed the cash in January and they must now start getting results on the pitch, as Fulham attempt to do the double over their west London rivals.

Chelsea vs Fulham – Chelsea gear up for this game after drawing 0-0 with Liverpool in the Premier League. They had 52% of the possession.

In that game, Fulham had 48% of the possession and three of their eight shots on goal were successful. In that game, Fulham had 69% of the possession and 12 of their 22 shots on goal were on target. The total average of goals scored each game over that period was a pitiful 1.67, with The Cottagers scoring an average of 1. Fewer than three goals have been scored between Fulham and the opposition in five of their last six games. These are the most competitive market prices available at the moment. Tom Cairney scored for Fulham in the 61st second. Over the course of their last six games, they have only scored three goals against other clubs. That equals 2.5 goals per game on average.

Potter, though, should be able to call on Enzo Fernandez, the costliest player in British football history, Noni Madueke, Mykhailo Mudryk, Benoit Badiashile, ...

"It was that evening, Chelsea against Hull, [memorable] because of what happened to Ryan Mason. Mason tried to make a comeback from the fractured skull but was forced to retire 12 months later, aged just 26. And now he has been omitted from the Champions League squad, meaning he can't play against Dortmund in the Westfalenstadion that adored him on Feb 15, the clear implication being that Chelsea want rid of him. Twenty-three days ago Fulham beat Chelsea at the Cottage 2-1, Willian and Carlos Vinicius scoring for the home side, Kalidou Koulibaly for Graham Potter's team who tried to scrape their way back following Joao Felix's red card on debut. Every day is a time to learn, you have to pick yourself up and go after defeats, that's part of the development process. Gallagher drops between the lines of Fulham's defence and the pivot of Reed and Palhinha to take the throw and shift it to the left to Mount who brings it forward and threads a pass up to Mudryk. Palhinha, one of the players of the season, picks off a pass on the right and clips a pass infield for Pereira who takes it back to goal with a brilliant touch to set up a half-volley on the turn which he thunders down towards the left post. He heads it back across goal to Mitrovic but Badiashile is tight enough to force him to miscontrol it and Chelsea scramble it away. Very difficult chance for Havertz on the lunge after Mount skated down the left and zipped over a cross. Chelsea are in getting to know you mode but there have been flashes of brilliance from Ziyech, Fernandez and Thiago Silva with their long passes, some clever runs from Havertz and Mount's drive down the inside-left channel. Mitrovic spies Kepa off his line and goes to chip him from long range, maybe a yard inside the Chelsea half. Leno's quick feet take him across the goalline to pluck it out of the sky.

After a frenzied climax to the January transfer window for Chelsea, they welcome high-flying Fulham to Stamford Bridge in search of a much-needed win.

Two narrow 1-0 defeats to in-form Newcastle United and Spurs wouldn't have harmed their confidence much. And they are just the major permanent ones, we haven't counted the likes of Andrey Santos, David Datro Fofana, and Joao Felix (loan). Big-money high-profile signings, long contracts, and dizzying spending levels, Blues' American owners have truly taken the football world by storm, with heads spinning in the offices of every top club across Europe.

A west London derby begins the Premier League weekend and for once it's Fulham in the ascendancy.

Certainly their recruitment this time round seems to have hit the spot and there will be high hopes for their new deadline day acquisitions, former Torino midfielder Sasa Lukic and Cedric Soares, who has arrived from Arsenal on loan. In part that can be put down to factors that are unlikely to continue, Fulham's opponents have received more red cards than any other side whilst the Cottagers have won more penalties. Chelsea: The Premier League record signing of Enzo Fernandez will, it is hoped, give Chelsea a foundational midfielder for much of the next decade. Here is how you can watch the match and what you need to know: The Premier League returns from a week's hiatus with a London derby on Friday night, one where, surprisingly, it is Fulham who have bragging rights over their neighbors.

Chelsea are out for Premier League payback on their cross-city rivals as they welcome Fulham to Stamford Bridge on Friday evening.

The question all Chelsea fans want to know is whether they will get a look at record-breaking arrival Fernandez after he joined on deadline day for £105m. The Brazilian gets the final touch and Chelsea win a throw-in. Amidst all of Chelsea's manic transfer spending, it would be easy to forget that the club are having one of their worst-ever Premier League seasons. James was injured against AC Milan before the World Cup and subsequently missed out on the tournament as he underwent surgery. The stands inside Stamford Bridge are filling up quickly with huge applause for new star Enzo Fernandez as he stepped out onto the turf. Chelsea are winning the midfield battle but look short of ideas in the final third with crosses off-target and Fulham cutting off opportunities. The Argentinian is doing well to break up play but is just being eased into things in this encounter. Chelsea almost have their breakthrough moment as Havertz gets on the end of Ziyech's reverse ball over the top of the Fulham defence. Fulham haven't had much of the ball but are looking effective when in possession. Fulham are exploiting space and looking dangerous themselves but seriously need to tighten up at the back in the second-half. Leno comes out to close down the space, the German's chip sails over him and looks goalbound but hits the crossbar. Chelsea supporters were expecting an expected dynamite attack to explode, no shot on target in the first-half has seen their new superstars struggle to find the spark.

Chelsea look to avenge last month's defeat to their West London rivals Fulham, in a match that could see record signing Enzo Fernández make his EPL debut.

Within two of those minutes he nearly found the winner, with Fofana latching on to a Gallagher pass and rounding the onrushing Leno, the striker left Issa Diop on the floor with the goal gaping. Mykhaylo Mudryk's arrival in West London now feels like a lifetime ago, such was the nature of the Fernandez saga and Benfica's reluctance to let the midfielder leave, but the former Shakhtar Donetsk ace was also given a first start.
