How to Watch Fulham vs. Chelsea on TV, Live Stream
The opening weekend of the new Premier League season concludes with a West London derby, as Chelsea take on Fulham at Craven Cottage.
The Blues have historically dominated the head-to-head duel with their local rivals, but have had their issues at the Cottage in recent years. Much has changed on both sides of the divide since Fulham’s 2–1 victory in January, with both teams now led by former Premier League Spaniards.
Chelsea have turned to Xabi Alonso for a resurgence, while Fulham have pivoted to Álvaro Arbeloa after five years of Marco Silva-led stability. The pair played together at Liverpool and Real Madrid, and it was Arbeloa who succeeded Alonso at Madrid after he was fired at the start of the year.
They will briefly put their friendship on hold when Monday night’s duel kicks off, with both managers aiming to enjoy winning starts to their respective West London tenures.
Here’s how to catch the final match of the Premier League’s opening weekend.
