EPL: Predicted Chelsea Lineup Against Fulham Tonight

Chelsea welcome Fulham to Stamford Bridge for a Premier League clash tonight after a whirlwind end to the transfer window for Graham Potter’s side.

After an underwhelming January on the pitch, which saw the Blues win just once in six encounters, Chelsea are ready to take on Marco Silva’s Fulham.

Potter’s side faced Fulham s in January at the Craven Cottage and lost 2-1 but the story could be different this time around as the Blues have a much stronger team available.

This is perhaps the hardest Chelsea predicted lineup to decipher, with Potter and company strengthening the squad tenfold in the January transfer window. But how many new signings will make the cut?

Chelsea had been dealing with injury issues in all departments but the new arrivals finally provide some depth and give Graham Potter a sigh of relief.

The rebuild of the club is in the eighth gear and now Potter just needs to drive this supercar to its destination.

Chelsea’s first aim will be to get a consistent run of results in the Premier League as this is a squad that can do much better than 10th in the table.

The Blues will be chasing a top-four spot and with the new resources at Potter’s disposal, Chelsea could become a force to reckon with.

The visitors surprisingly come into the game three places above Chelsea, despite the Blues having now spent over £600 million on transfers this season.

Fulham have virtually no injury worries coming into the game, with Neeskens Kebano the only current absentee.

Fulham were also busy on deadline day, as they were able to bring in Serbian international Sasa Lukic from Torino, who will link up with his compatriot Mitrovic in the squad.

Cedric Soares also came in on loan from Arsenal to offer more cover at right-back, with Kevin Mbabu seemingly not in Silva’s plans as back up.

Arrizabalaga; Chalobah, Thiago Silva, Badiashile; Azpilicueta, Kovacic, Hall, Cucurella; Mount, Mudryk, Havertz

Fulham’s possible starting lineup:
