Fulham vs Chelsea: prediction & betting odds 20 Apr 2025

The Matchday 33 Premier League clash between Fulham and Chelsea will take place on April 20 at Craven Cottage in London. Fulham vs. Chelsea: prediction and betting odds, statistics.

Fulham

The London club continues to be inconsistent. In their last 12 league matches, they've avoided draws, securing six wins and suffering six defeats. In the previous round, Marco Silva's side lost 0-1 away to Bournemouth, although they had previously defeated Liverpool 3-2 at home. Due to this lack of stability, Fulham is in ninth place in the standings, six points adrift of the European competition spots.

  • Exactly two or three goals have been scored in 7 of Fulham's last 9 Premier League games.
  • Fulham has not won the first half in 12 of their last 13 league matches (6 draws and 6 losses).
  • Both teams have scored in 12 of Fulham's last 16 home Premier League fixtures.

Predicted lineup for Fulham (4-2-3-1)

Bernd Leno – Antonee Robinson, Joachim Andersen, Calvin Bassey, Timothy Castagne – Sander Berge, Andreas Pereira – Ryan Sessegnon, Alex Iwobi, Sasa Lukic – Rodrigo Muniz.

Chelsea

Just like in the first round, Chelsea couldn't overcome Ipswich: in late December, they lost 0-2 away, and in the last round, they managed only a 2-2 draw at home. Under Enzo Maresca, Chelsea is unbeaten in their last three league matches, with one win and two draws. Due to these mixed results, Chelsea has dropped to sixth place, trailing Manchester City by one point, who occupy the fifth spot that grants a Champions League berth next season.

  • At least one team has failed to score in 5 of Chelsea's last 6 Premier League matches.
  • No more than three goals have been scored in 7 of Chelsea's last 9 league games.
  • Chelsea has not won the first half in their last eight away Premier League matches (3 draws and 5 losses).

Predicted lineup for Chelsea (4-3-3)

Robert Sanchez – Tosin Adarabioyo, Levi Colwill, Marc Cucurella, Trevoh Chalobah – Enzo Fernandez, Moises Caicedo, Cole Palmer – Noni Madueke, Pedro Neto, Nicolas Jackson.

Forward Mykhailo Mudryk continues to serve a suspension due to a failed doping test. Defenders Wesley Fofana, forward Marc Guehi, and midfielder Omari Kellyman are sidelined with injuries.

Fulham vs. Chelsea: Match Prediction

Bookmakers slightly favor the visitors in this London derby. However, I believe Enzo Maresca's side is playing weaker football in the second half of the season compared to the first. The team has lost its spark after the Christmas holidays, winning only five of their last 16 Premier League matches (5 draws and 6 losses). Notably, Chelsea has only beaten teams ranked no higher than 15th during this period.

Fulham is an unpredictable team, yet they rise to the occasion against strong opponents. At home, Marco Silva's side has lost only twice in their last 10 Premier League games (4 wins and 4 draws). They have won their last two home matches in the league. On the other hand, Chelsea has failed to win in their last eight away league games (3 draws and 5 losses), scoring just three goals in this poor away run.

My prediction – Fulham with a handicap (0)

Betting tips 20 Apr 2025

Chelsea’s surprising 2:1 loss to Legia Warsaw in the second leg of the UEFA Europa Conference League quarter-finals did not stop them from reaching the next stage. In their upcoming English Premier League fixture against Fulham, the team must deliver a committed performance, as they are still chasing a place in next season’s Champions League.

Despite a spirited 3:2 win over Liverpool two rounds ago, Fulham have now lost three of their last four matches. In their trip to face Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium (0:1), they conceded within the first minute and ended the match with 1.86 in xGA — a result that essentially dashed any remaining hopes of European qualification. At Craven Cottage, Fulham have struggled defensively, conceding 23 goals from 17.93 in xGA.

The defeat to Legia Warsaw at Stamford Bridge ended a four-match unbeaten streak for Chelsea in all competitions. Last week, they came from two goals down to draw 2:2 against Ipswich Town, with Jadon Sancho coming off the bench to salvage a point for the team. On the road, Chelsea have accumulated 29.86 xG in 16 matches — a statistic surpassed only by Bournemouth (33.03) and Liverpool (40.28) in the English Premier League.

At Craven Cottage, Fulham have lost five of their last six home matches against Chelsea since April 2013. We are backing the visitors with a safe handicap (0)  — they have significantly more to play for as the season draws to a close.
