Fulham vs Chelsea Betting Odds, Tips, Predictions, Preview 12th January 2023
Fulham enjoy home advantage, when visitors Chelsea swing by on Saturday for a Premier League clash. Chelsea won 2-0 and 1-0 in the two most recent meetings with Fulham, and go into their upcoming match with a psychological advantage.
Fulham are number 10 in the table on eight points after six matches. Chelsea rank as number six with ten points after six matches played. On top of the defeat in the Champions League this led to the sacking of manager Thomas Tuchel on Wednesday.
Fulham are looking for a payback after suffering a disappointing defeat in their latest encounter with Chelsea but odds don't favour them to pull it off.
Fulham scored 11 goals, conceded 17 and fought their way to one clean sheet in their previous ten matches.
Chelsea scored 16 times in their previous ten matches, an average of 1.6 per game. They also conceded 13 goals for an average of 1.3 a game, pulling off two clean sheets in these.
Fulham vs Chelsea Prediction
It is all or nothing with Fulham presently. They first went down 2-1 in an encounter with Arsenal, to which they replied by beating Brighton2-1. Their latest encounter once again had them on the losing side, when they lost 2-1 against Tottenham. Fulham claimed a modest two wins in their past six home matches in the Premier League. They also drew one and lost three, scored seven goals and conceded ten.
Few people had high hopes on behalf of Fulham before the season, but current form sees them punching above expectations.
It is all or nothing with Chelsea, who only triumphed once in their previous three outings. They were defeated 2-1 against Southampton, before beating West Ham 2-1. Unable to build on that, they lost 1-0 against Dinamo Zagreb. Chelsea won twice, while also recording one draw, and three defeats in their last six away matches in the Premier League. The scoreline from these matches says seven goals conceded and six scored.
Qualifying for Europe was a target going into this season, and Chelsea are keeping their eyes on the prize.
They usually throw caution to the wind, when clashing with each other, and with both Fulham and Chelsea scoring freely over the past weeks, we expect a highly entertaining match.
