Fulham team news

Fulham have been boosted by the return of Joachim Andersen, who could come back into the starting side at Stamford Bridge. The Danish defender has impressed since returning to the club from Crystal Palace in the summer. Issa Diop is likely to make way for Andersen’s return in central defence.

Kenny Tete, however, is facing three months out. The Dutchman suffered a nasty shin injury during the draw at Liverpool so Timothy Castagne will continue at right-back. Harrison Reed and Reiss Nelson are also absentees for Fulham.
