Mark Schwarzer
Former Chelsea & Fulham goalkeeper on BBC Radio 5 Live
Chelsea have had some big chances, but they didn't finish the game off and they let Fulham have an opportunity.

Ben, Spurs fan: Ange has to go. He is so far out of his depth. Every team with any purpose and form knows how to beat him.
Danny: It wasn't that long ago when Nuno was 'out of depth' managing Spurs. Danny

Chelsea 1-1 Fulham
Troy Deeney
Former Watford striker on BBC Final Score
Harry Wilson has got the super sub tag that no one wants, but will always take. He's scored four goals coming on as a substitute. He's the only person on the move in the box and makes the tap-in at the far post. It's a good goal.

That goal has been chalked off.
The clearance hit Bruno on the elbow and went in so it's handball.
Chelsea 1-1 Fulham
Fulham have scored eight goals via substitutes in the Premier League this season. No team has more.

Liverpool are unbeaten in their last 12 Premier League home games against Leicester (W10 D2), since losing three in a row between 1997 and 2000.
Leicester have won just two of their last 12 Premier League games against Liverpool (D1 L9). They’ve had three runs of three consecutive defeats in this run (including a current one), but they’ve not lost four straight league games against the Reds since between 1987 and 1996.
Liverpool have won their last seven league games played on Boxing Day, the longest current run among any side in England’s top four tiers, and the Reds’ longest ever such run.
Leicester have won just one of their last 10 Boxing Day league games (D2 L7), with that coming in 2018-19 against eventual champions Manchester City.
Liverpool are unbeaten in their last 21 matches in all competitions (W18 D3). It’s their longest run without defeat since a streak of 25 between April and November 2021, and their longest within a single season since a run of 24 between January and May 1989.
Liverpool have conceded eight goals in their last three Premier League games, as many as they had in their first 13 under Arne Slot. However, the Reds have scored at least twice in each of their last nine league games, their longest such run since September-December 2021 (11).
Leicester lost 4-0 against Newcastle and 3-0 against Wolves in their last two Premier League games. They last lost three consecutive league games by a margin of 3+ goals back in November 1958.
No current Premier League player has been involved in more goals (6) or provided more assists (4) on Boxing Day than Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah.
Mohamed Salah has scored 99 goals in 141 home games in the Premier League (2 for Chelsea, 97 for Liverpool). If he scores, he will become the eighth player to score 100+ on home soil in the competition, and fourth-fastest, after Alan Shearer (91 apps), Thierry Henry (113), and Sergio Agüero (125).
Leicester striker Jamie Vardy has scored eight Premier League goals against Liverpool, with only Andrew Cole (11) and Harry Kane (9) netting more against the Reds in the competition. At the age of 37 years and 350 days, Vardy would also be the oldest player to score a Premier League goal against Liverpool with a goal in this game.
