Fulham host Chelsea in a west London derby on Sunday (Watch live, 9:05 a.m. ET on NBCSN and online via NBCSports.com) with both teams in need of a big win.
After Claudio Ranieri was fired, former Chelsea and Fulham midfielder Scott Parker has been placed in charge on a caretaker basis until the end of the season.
Maurizio Sarri is still under pressure at Chelsea despite only losing to Man City on penalty kicks in the League Cup final and then beating Tottenham in the Premier League in midweek, so a big win to boost their top four hopes is exactly what the Blues need.
In team news Fulham bring Ryan Sessegnon back into the starting lineup, while Chelsea bring back Kepa Arrizabalaga after he was dropped following his refusal to be substituted in the League Cup final last Sunday.
A week on, all of the talk is about Chelsea’s Spanish goalkeeper.
