Gabby Agbonlahor has predicted a score draw in Fulham’s clash against Chelsea on Monday night in the Premier League.

There’s a fascinating game taking place in a couple of days time at Craven Cottage, with Fulham hosting London rivals Chelsea in a league fixture.

The Blues will be upbeat after a midweek win against Brighton in the Carabao Cup, but it’s not pretty reading when you shift focus back on the Premier League.

As it stands, Mauricio Pochettino’s side are down to 15th. They’re only a point above 16th-placed Everton and 17th-placed Luton, too.

We’re still in the opening months of this 2023/24 campaign, but it does feel quite a significant match for Chelsea on Monday to try climb the table.

TalkSPORT pundit Agbonlahor isn’t backing Chelsea to record what would be just a second league win of the season. Instead, he’s predicting a 2-2 draw away to Fulham.

When making his prediction for Fulham vs Chelsea, Agbonlahor told talkSPORT: “Well, I don’t know how to call this…

“Chelsea, you don’t know what team they’re going to play, what Chelsea are going to turn up.

“I’m going to go for a draw. I feel like a 2-2 draw. Chelsea still a work in progress. Fulham don’t sit back and let teams beat them.”

The Chelsea Chronicle has predicted the Blues starting line-up to face Fulham.

We know that both Nicolas Jackson and Malo Gusto will be missing through suspension, so it’ll be interesting to see how their voids are filled.

Jackson got just his second goal of the season in midweek against Brighton, but this goal-shy team now needs someone else to step up in his absence.
