Both Chelsea and Fulham entered their previous matches as odds-on favourites to collect maximum points against sides towards the bottom of the division in Everton and Southampton.
However, both walked away with a point after playing out frustrating goalless draws. Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca, though, seemed happy enough with draw against an Everton side with more clean sheets than anyone in Europe's top five divisions since the beginning of October.
And the draw extended their unbeaten run to 12 games in all competitions, including nine victories, 36 goals and four clean sheets. The Blues remain second in the table, four points behind leaders Liverpool having played a game more than their Merseyside rivals.
But they'll need to return to winning ways with Arsenal breathing down their necks, and a home clash against west London rivals Fulham could be ideal for Maresca's men. They've won five of their last six meetings at Stamford Bridge with Fulham failing to score a single goal in any of those clashes. In fact, the Cottagers have won just eight games against Chelsea since 1910 (D23, L47).
