The Premier League Summer Series is back in action with another set of matches this weekend as Fulham lock horns with Thomas Tuchel's Chelsea side in an interesting clash at the FedExField on Sunday.

Chelsea vs Fulham Preview

Chelsea finished in 12th place in the Premier League standings last season and have struggled over the past year. The Blues were held to a 1-1 draw by Newcastle United in their previous game and will need to take it up a notch this weekend.

Fulham, on the other hand, secured a 10th-place finish in the league table last season and have been inconsistent in recent months. The Cottagers slumped to a 2-0 defeat at the hands of Aston Villa last week and will need to bounce back in this match.

Chelsea have been in impressive form under Mauricio Pochettino but have a few issues to resolve ahead of the new season. Nicolas Jackson has been exceptional for the Blues so far and will look to add to his goal tally in this match.

Fulham have shown marked improvement in recent months but will be up against a formidable opponent this weekend. Chelsea are the better team on paper and should be able to win this game.

Prediction: Chelsea 3-2 Fulham
