Coach Marco Silva parted ways with Fulham after 5 years to move to Benfica. He was replaced by Alvaro Arbeloa, former interim coach of Real Madrid.
Meanwhile, Chelsea also placed their trust in Xabi Alonso after the disappointing 2025-2026 season with 10th place. Alonso became the 27th coach to lead Chelsea in the Premier League, more than any other club in the history of the league.
Chelsea enters the new season with a almost completely different appearance. 11 new players have arrived at Stamford Bridge, of which Morgan Rogers is the most notable deal. Besides his youth, Alonso also has more experience from Jordan Henderson and Danny Welbeck.
On the other side, Arbeloa took advantage of his relationship with Real Madrid to bring Gonzalo Garcia and Casar Palacios to Craven Cottage. These two young players are expected to fill the void left by Raul Jimenez and Harry Wilson.
In the most recent meeting between the two teams, Fulham won 2-1, with goals from Jimenez and Wilson.
If Fulham wins another victory, this will be the first time they have won 2 consecutive matches against Chelsea since a 3-match winning streak (April 1977 to October 1979).
