Chelsea vs Fulham preview: Prediction, date, venue, and how to watch Premier League match on DAZN in Canada

The closest rivalry in the Premier League is renewed on Saturday as Chelsea host neighbours Fulham to kick off Matchweek 3.

Chelsea will be feeling good after their big victory at West Ham last week, in which they overcame an early deficit to win by a four-goal margin. The match was memorable as a breakout for young attacker Estevao, who joined the Blues earlier this summer and was a last-minute replacement for Cole Palmer.

Meanwhile, Fulham played to a 1-1 draw with visiting Manchester United last weekend, which followed their season-opening 1-1 draw at Brighton. The Cottagers enjoyed most of te possession against Man United, but they can expect a different outlook at Stamford Bridge as Chelsea will surely look to impose their style on the match.

Chelsea vs Fulham: What the managers are saying

"Solid, well organised, they play nice football and it is not random they are doing well. Marco [Silva] is good, the players are good. We need to be careful, as always."

“They are capable to do things off the pitch which we are not – our aim is to balance everything inside the pitch, to balance everything during the 95 or 100 minutes that we are going to play against them, like we did last season both games.

“Two great games, really balanced, emotional games, late goals for us at Stamford Bridge, [and] after for them at Craven Cottage.

“But the way we faced them, the way we matched them, is what we are going to try to do again, to balance the things on a matchday that are completely different off the pitch.”

Chelsea vs Fulham prediction

The Blues' attack is now up and running, and a return to Stamford Bridge should do little to hamper that. We do see Fulham scoring at least once, however.

Prediction: Chelsea 3-1 Fulham
