Chelsea Host Fulham on Saturday as UK TV Listings Diverge
Cole Palmer's fitness is in doubt for Chelsea after a groin issue.
Overview
- Kick-off is set for Saturday, August 30 at 12:30pm BST at Stamford Bridge.
- UK broadcast information remains inconsistent, with the Evening Standard listing TNT Sports/Discovery+ and The Sun listing Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Premier League with NOW streaming.
- Team news points to Chelsea assessing Palmer’s availability, while Fulham expect Bernd Leno, Joachim Andersen, Kenny Tete and Sander Berge to return and could hand Antonee Robinson a first start of the season.
- Chelsea arrive after a 5-1 win at West Ham following an opening 0-0 draw, whereas Fulham have opened with back-to-back 1-1 draws against Brighton and Manchester United.
- The derby carries added edge after Fulham’s victory at Stamford Bridge last season, their first there since 1979.
