Chelsea v Fulham team news: Both sides unchanged

30 August 2025 695 comments

Skonto Rigga

Chelsea v Fulham gets Gameweek 3 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) underway.

The team news couldn’t be simpler: both sides are unchanged from their last Premier League matches.

The Blues are, of course, without the injured Cole Palmer for this clash.

Reece James is only among the substitutes again, as Malo Gusto keeps his place at right-back.

Moises Caicedo is fit to start, despite only having his first training session of the week on Friday.

As for the Cottagers, Rodrigo Muniz retains his place up top despite a midweek goal for positional rival Raul Jimenez.

And budget FPL midfielder Josh King starts for the third league game in a row.

Harry Wilson is on the bench after shrugging off a midweek foot injury, while Antonee Robinson is also a substitute as he slowly builds up match fitness following his summer knee surgery.

LINE-UPS

Chelsea XI: Sanchez, Gusto, Tosin, Chalobah, Cucurella, Caicedo, Fernandez, Estevao, Joao Pedro, Neto, Delap.

Subs: Jorgensen, Acheampong, James, Fofana, Hato, Essugo, Santos, George, Gittens.

Fulham XI: Leno, Tete, Anderson, Bassey, Castagne, Lukic, Berge, Sessegnon, King, Iwobi, Muniz.

Subs: Lecomte, Cuenca, Robinson, Reed, Cairney, Adama, Wilson, Smith Rowe, Jimenez.

Cucurella becomes the 6th player I’ve had to be 1 defcon away from getting the extra 2 points, Tosin in my non FH team does - still yet to have any defcon points

  Do they recount defcons? I feel they missed 2 for Cucurella. One first half - first 30 mins and one near the end. Non-owner but I’m pretty sure they missed

Pedro, Cucu & Sanchez. Boom time.

Richarlison as a captain choice. Already feeling far too hopeful of a high point scoring week.

The result would be very different if officiating in English football weren’t so...dodgy. Disgraceful.

Best league in the world, with that level of officiating? All marketing, no substance.

Not happy with Pedro scoring but he only gets 9 to my Chalobah getting 11. I will take that. Goal last week, assist this week plus DC. Keep it up Trevor

Might Chelsea double defence not be a good idea? Was thinking Chalobah and I have Cucurella. I would bring in JP too, although he may not be as central or advanced when Palmer is back (despite him having scored 1 goal in about a million games).

  Tbf, VAR has saved them from conceding in all of their matches this season.
  
  So a little rub of the video screen in their favour so far, which has benefited Sanchez owners etc.

    But given that VAR has been consistently shite for everybody this year, this will likely continue.
