Chelsea vs. Fulham, Premier League Summer Series Friendly ...
Preseason match number four is here, featuring a DMV-edition of the West London Derby against friendly neighbors Fulham. It’s the last of our “Premier League Summer Series” of friendlies in the States, with a game against Borussia Dortmund to come on Wednesday and then back home to get ready for the start of the season in two weeks.
