"Premier League Fulham won this fixture 2-1 last season, ending a 21-game winless streak away to Chelsea in all competitions. Two 1-1 draws and a Carabao Cup win in midweek signal a fair start to this term for Marco Silva's side, despite a glaring lack of new faces arriving in the summer, though Raul Jimenez has impressed. That said, they've never won consecutive visits to Stamford Bridge. Chelsea, meanwhile, failed to score in their opening game then thumped West Ham 5-1 at the London Stadium."
"Formula One kicks back into action after its summer shutdown, with Lando Norris resuming his title tussle with McLaren teammate Oscar Piastri. The Briton trails the Australian by nine points with 10 races remaining but won last time out in Hungary, coming out on top in the strategy battle before fending off Piastri's late lunge to take his fifth win of the season and his third in the last four races."
Buildup to the Premier League's third Saturday features six top-flight matches, overnight headlines, Friday night's Championship clash between Leicester and Birmingham, and coverage of Football League and Scottish Premiership action.

Chelsea thumped West Ham 5-1 and Joao Pedro has scored four goals in four starts.
