Fulham are set to play host to Chelsea in Monday's Premier League London derby clash at Craven Cottage.
The hosts were hammered 5-1 by Manchester City early on in September but have been unbeaten after the international break. Carlos Vinicius and Alex Iwobi scored the goals as they beat Norwich City in their most recent outing.
Chelsea, on the other hand, were winless in three matches in September but managed to get themselves a victory when they beat Brighton in the Carabao Cup. There will be pressure on Mauricio Pochettino as the Blues are currently 15th in the standings, with just one win in six league games so far.
