Why you should back Chelsea

The Blues have dominated Fulham during league play, posting 13 victories and eight draws in their last 22 meetings. Chelsea also posted a 2-0 triumph over the Cottagers in a friendly on July 30 that clinched the inaugural Premier League Summer Series title. It was the fourth clean sheet the Blues recorded in their last five overall matchups against Fulham.

Defender Thiago Silva converted against the Cottagers in the friendly, and Chelsea is hoping he can break through again on Monday as the 39-year-old Brazilian hasn't scored during league play since the 2021-22 season. Raheem Sterling leads the Blues this campaign with two goals, both of which came in a 3-0 win against Luton Town on Aug. 25. The 28-year-old is looking to bounce back from a disappointing first season with Chelsea in which he netted only six goals after reaching double figures with Manchester City for the fifth consecutive campaign in 2021-22. See which team to pick here.

Why you should back Fulham

The Cottagers haven't scored much this season, recording more than one goal in just one of their six EPL contests. Forward Carlos Vinicius is one of five players with a goal for Fulham in league play, as he converted in the team's 1-0 victory against Luton Town two weeks ago. The 28-year-old Brazilian also scored in the Cottagers' EFL Cup triumph over Norwich City.

Since their loss to Chelsea in a friendly on July 30, Fulham have dropped only two of nine matches across all competitions. The Cottagers have been solid defensively, allowing more than one goal only three times during that stretch. They have posted clean sheets in half of their Premier League matches this season, including each of the last two. See which team to pick here.
