Chelsea have won 14 of their last 21 matches and are fighting on three fronts. They are 4th in the Premier League, four points behind Leicester and three points ahead of West Ham.

Thomas Tuchel’s side beat Man City 1-0 in the FA Cup semi-finals. Hakim Ziyech scored the winner at Wembley in another solid defensive performance.

The Blues returned to the Premier League with a 0-0 draw at home against Brighton. They dominated possession but found chances hard to come by.

Chelsea then picked up a vital 1-0 win at West Ham. Timo Werner scored the winner in a deserved victory, Chelsea with 2.52-0.27 expected goals.

Chelsea’s last match was a 1-1 draw at Real Madrid in the Champions League semi-final first leg. Christian Pulisic put them ahead and they will be disappointed after dominating most of the game.

Expect Tuchel to make some changes here with Marcos Alonso, Hakim Ziyech, Callum Hudson-Odoi and Kai Havertz in line to start.

Fulham were looking good to avoid relegation at the end of February. They have lost five of seven since then and are seven points from safety with five matches remaining.

Scott Parker’s side have lost four of their last five. The Cottagers lost at home against Man City (3-0), Leeds (2-1) and Wolves (1-0) and lost 3-1 at Aston Villa.

Fulham’s last match was a 1-1 draw at Arsenal. Josh Maja put them ahead from the penalty spot, but they couldn’t hang on after having 30% possession and 0.84-2.86 expected goals.
