Fulham host Chelsea at Craven Cottage in Matchday 1 of the 2026–27 Premier League season. Here are all the details on how to watch this west London derby live in the United States. Here are all of the details of where you can watch Fulham vs Chelsea on US television and via legal streaming: WHO: Fulham vs Chelsea WHAT: Premier League WHEN: 3:00 PM ET / 12:00 PM PT • Monday, August 24, 2026 WHERE: Fubo STREAM: WATCH NOW Match Overview Fulham kicks off their new era under manager Álvaro Arbeloa with a high-stakes West London derby. The Cottagers transformed Craven Cottage into a fortress last season, securing the sixth-best home record in the Premier League with an impressive 35 points from a possible 57. Their defense was particularly stout, with only Manchester City and Arsenal conceding fewer goals on home soil. The challenge now is to maintain that dominance without the guidance of former manager Marco Silva, making this opening test a crucial indicator of their direction. Across London, Chelsea arrives with an urgent mandate for redemption. After a deeply disappointing 10th-place finish last season, the club has invested heavily and placed its faith in celebrated new head coach Xabi Alonso. The pressure is immense for the Blues to make an immediate statement and prove they are once again contenders for European qualification. An opening-day victory against a fierce local rival is not just desired; it is expected, as Alonso looks to implement his winning blueprint from day one. Tactical Analysis & Match Context This match presents a fascinating clash of clubs on different trajectories. Fulham aims to build upon the stability of a mid-table finish, but must navigate the transition to a new manager while integrating fresh talent. In contrast, Chelsea is in the midst of a comprehensive overhaul, banking on Alonso’s tactical genius and a massive summer spending spree to erase the memory of a frustrating campaign. The Blues are starting from a lower base but have far greater resources and expectations. The tactical battle will likely be defined by Chelsea’s aggressive, possession-based style. Alonso’s teams are known for their high press, and Chelsea’s squad is already suited for it, having allowed the fewest passes per defensive action in the league last season. This puts immense pressure on Fulham to be precise and composed when playing out from the back. The game could be won or lost based on how Fulham’s midfield copes with Chelsea’s relentless pressure and whether they can exploit the space left behind on the counter-attack. Motivation is sky-high on both sides. For Chelsea, anything less than a win would be seen as a setback, reigniting supporter frustration after a summer of renewed hope. They need to set the tone for a return to the top four. For Fulham, this is an opportunity to prove their progress is sustainable beyond Marco Silva. Defending their home turf against their wealthy neighbors and giving Arbeloa a signature win to start his tenure would provide a massive psychological boost for the season ahead. Head-to-Head Record & Historic Trends Historically, the West London derby has been dominated by Chelsea. Across 95 official meetings, the Blues have claimed victory 54 times compared to just 14 for Fulham, with 27 matches ending in a draw. This long-term record paints a clear picture of Chelsea’s superiority in the fixture over the decades. However, recent encounters have been far more competitive, suggesting the gap has narrowed. Over the last five matchups, Chelsea holds a slender 3-2 advantage. Last season, the home team won each fixture; Chelsea secured a 2-0 victory at Stamford Bridge, while Fulham earned a memorable 2-1 win at Craven Cottage in January. This trend highlights the critical role home-field advantage has played in this derby lately. Looking at the data, goals are a common feature. Both teams have scored in three of the last four meetings between the clubs. The average number of goals per game in t
Rossoneri overcome fascinating first challenge at Torino as teams across Serie A give homegrown talent a chance“I love Cissè. I love Cissè.” Ruben Amorim had not yet taken charge of his first competitive game as Milan head coach but already he was furnishing journalists with soundbites and supporters with memes, clippable moments that you just knew we were destined to revisit.Alphadjo Cissè is a 19-year-old attacking midfielder who signed for Milan from Verona in February but only joined up with them this summer, after completing the season-long loan he had already begun at Catanzaro in Serie B. He scored six goals in 22 games there, missing the second half of the campaign with a thigh injury. Previously he had played a combined 14 minutes for Verona across three substitute appearances in the top flight. Continue reading...
Hull City boss Sergej Jakirovic kept his plan to topple Manchester United on their Premier League return under wraps for weeks, assistant head coach Dean Holden told Match of the Day. The Tigers produced a sensational 2-0 win over Michael Carrick's side on Saturday, all while deploying a back five. Jakirovic altered his tactics for the game, having watched a couple of United's pre-season matches, including the 4-2 defeat by AC Milan which was engineered by former boss Ruben Amorim, when he repeatedly switched play to his wing-backs which United's defence failed to cover.
