Team News

Chelsea
After some defensive shifting which saw Axel Disasi come in at right-back and Malo Gusto move to the left at Everton, Marc Cucurella is back from suspension and that should lead to a more orthodox back four for Chelsea.

Romeo Lavia could be fit to return after Maresca revealed the Everton game would be just too soon for the Belgian midfielder, but Reece James and Wesley Fofana remain out with hamstring injuries.

Benoit Badiashile also remains out, but his replacement Tosin Adarabioyo has stepped up to the plate commendably, and saved a certain goal with a flying block on Everton's Iliman Ndiaye on Sunday.
Chelsea possible starting lineup:
Sanchez; Gusto, Tosin, Colwill, Cucurella; Enzo, Caicedo; Pedro Neto, Palmer, Madueke; Jackson

Fulham
Fulham's Emile Smith Rowe is a major doubt for this one after missing the draw with Southampton due to a leg injury, while Silva might also be without his first-choice midfield, as Sasa Lukic and Sander Berge are both doubtful.

Andreas Pereira will at least return from suspension here, and could replace teenager Josh King, who made his full Premier League debut on Sunday, and put forward a good account of himself.

Kenny Tete and Reiss Nelson both recently sustained injuries that will sideline them until February at least, and there is a decision to be made up front between either Raul Jimenez or Rodrigo Muniz, who came into the side against the Saints.
Fulham possible starting lineup:
Leno; Castagne, Andersen, Bassey, Robinson; Cairney, Pereira, Iwobi; Wilson, Jimenez, Adama
Prediction: Chelsea 3-1 Fulham
