Fulham FC host Chelsea at Craven Cottage on Tuesday in Gameweek 1 of the 2026 EPL season. Here’s our preview and best markets.
The round closes out with a stone’s-throw derby, as Fulham host their rivals Chelsea on Tuesday morning.
Both sides come into the new season with new gaffers, and, strangely enough, both managers were Real Madrid gaffers last campaign. Chelsea have their first “manager” since José Mourinho, with the signing of Xabi Alonso to take the club forward, whereas Fulham appointed Álvaro Arbeloa after Marco Silva left the club.
Like some of the other big clubs in the Prem, it feels like Chelsea have a fresh start under Alonso, and I would expect them to try to put Fulham to the sword from the jump.
