Fulham vs Chelsea Prediction

Fulham Form

Fulham recorded a win, a draw and a defeat in their last three matches. They lost 0-1 against Bournemouth, before drawing 1-1 with Wolverhampton. They won their most recent game 2-0 against Newcastle. It has been a bit hit-and-miss for Fulham but at least mostly hit, as they put four wins on the board in their previous six Premier League matches. They didn't draw any matches, but lost twice, scoring eight goals while conceding four.

Chelsea Form

It is all or nothing with Chelsea following one win in their previous three outings. They first went down 0-1 in an encounter with Manchester City to which, they replied by beating Tottenham2-1. Their latest encounter once again had them on the losing side, when they lost 2-1 against Sunderland. Chelsea only have one paltry win to show from the last six away games in the Premier League. In these six matches they drew one and lost four as well as being outscored by 12 goals to seven.

Fulham don't score many goals but, they are equally tough to crack down. This makes for a low scoring match, when Chelsea come visiting on Monday.
