The Premier League's Monday night offering is a West London rivalry as Fulham hosts Chelsea at Craven Cottage. Both teams are struggling in the bottom half of the standings.
Midweek third-round EFL Cup matches saw both clubs win by a single goal, with the Cottagers defeating Norwich City 2-1 and the Blues defeating Brighton & Hove Albion 1-0.
Fulham welcomed Norwich back to Premier League territory for their EFL Cup matchup in the middle of the week, stringing together a good run of results before the hectic autumn calendar, and Carlos Vinicius and Alex Iwobi advanced the Cottagers into the round of 16.
Borja Sainz's response with 15 minutes remaining was insufficient for the Canaries, as Marco Silva's team extended their unbeaten streak in all competitions to three games and set up another matchup with Championship opposition; Ipswich Town awaits in round four.
The hosts' victory against Norwich came four days after a dull 0-0 draw with another capital team Crystal Palace, which saw Silva's team begin the weekend in 11th place in the standings, where they will remain until Sunday's match between Nottingham Forest and Brentford.
A third straight Premier League clean sheet may be on the menu here for Fulham after they avoided an EFL Cup upset and have only lost one of their last six games overall. Few will fault them for losing to treble winners Manchester City at the Etihad, though.
Fulham ended an eight-game streak without a Premier League clean sheet at Craven Cottage on September 16. While they have lost each of their last nine London derbies in the top flight, it's easy to guess who their most recent capital victory came against.
As in August, Chelsea held off Brighton at Stamford Bridge and finally earned their first victory of the month thanks to Nicolas Jackson. This came in the midst of another depressing stretch of Premier League play.
The Senegalese striker, whose early Premier League heroics have left much to be desired, neatly side-footed home into the bottom corner to set up a fourth-round meeting with Blackburn Rovers. He also snapped the Blues' wretched three-game drought without making the net bulge.
Although they have had favorable xG statistics in each of their last three Premier League games, Mauricio Pochettino's expensively assembled team will travel to Craven Cottage without a win or even a goal after losing to an Ollie Watkins goal against Aston Villa last weekend.
Just five points from six games is Chelsea's worst start to a new season since the 1978–1979 campaign, when they finished last in the standings and were demoted to the Second Division. Chelsea only have a 3-0 humiliation of Luton Town to show for their last 10 top-flight games.
Fulham had lost 21 straight games to Chelsea before the start of last season, but the Cottagers broke that streak with a 2-1 victory at home and left Stamford Bridge with a point after a 0-0 draw; a similar story to the latter could be in store here, as all three of the previous Monday meetings between the local rivals have ended in draws.
