Chelsea Team News: Injuries, suspensions and line-up vs Fulham

The Blues are in the midst of a busy period and will continue to try and arrest a slide in form against their local rivals

Chelsea face Fulham in their second successive Premier League derby match, as they look to continue their recovery from a recent 3-1 loss against Tottenham at Wembley Stadium.

The defeat against Tottenham saw Chelsea drop to fourth place, with Arsenal just one point behind them in fifth, as a title challenge in the 2018-19 season looks increasingly unlikely in Maurizio Sarri's first season.

A top four finish remains Chelsea's main aim but Fulham need the points at Stamford Bridge on Sunday, as ex-Blues manager Claudio Ranieri wants to build on his 3-2 win over Southampton with another positive result in his second game in charge of the Cottagers.
