Off an embarrassing 1-0 loss to Middlesbrough in the EFL Cup Semis, the Blues will take it out on Fulham in Saturday's West London Derby. The Cottagers aren't strong on the road, as they can't keep the ball out of the net in their away matches. Chelsea has also had trouble on the road but has been winning at home. The Blues are 3-0 their last 3 home matches.

In addition to having homefield advantage, the Blues benefit from an extra day's worth of rest. Fulham's loss to Liverpool came a full 24 hours after Chelsea's setback to Middlesbrough. Chelsea won 2-0 the last time the clubs faced each other. This will be another home win for the Stamford Bridge faithful.
