Fulham have easily moved clear of the relegation places after putting together a five-game unbeaten run in the Premier League.
Their strong form continued at Craven Cottage on Sunday after scoring late to earn a 2-2 draw with Liverpool. The Cottagers have been reliable at home throughout the season, winning five of their ten matches, and failing to score in just 10% of their fixtures.
American international Antonee Robinson has been a standout performer since returning from injury, filling in for Ryan Sessegnon.

Chelsea look set to appoint Liam Rosenior as their new head coach, but it remains to be seen whether he will be in place to be on the touchline on Wednesday.
The Blues have now failed to win in their last four in the Premier League, but confidence would have been gained following a 1-1 draw at Man City on Sunday. Enzo Fernandez scored the equalizer in the tie, and his runs from deep constantly caused issues for Pep Guardiola's side.
Chelsea have been reliable on the road this season, losing just two of their ten fixtures. Meanwhile, they have scored an eye-catching 1.8 goals per game on their travels.
| TOTAL | Fulham | Chelsea | DRAWS | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Games | 40 | 3 | 25 | 12 |
| Goals | 91 | 27 | 64 |
Chelsea have avoided defeat in 34 of their 37 Premier League meetings with Fulham. Despite the Cottagers being in excellent recent form, it is worth chancing the head-to-head record when making picks on Wednesday.
