Chelsea's next five Premier League games compared to Liverpool and Arsenal as title race heats up

Chelsea have a busy run of fixtures over the festive period as they continue their quest to win the Premier League title.

The Blues were forced to settle for a point in a goalless draw with Everton on Sunday in their final top-flight fixture before Christmas and they will now prepare to host Fulham on Boxing Day in their next Premier League fixture.

Enzo Maresca's side are four points behind leaders Liverpool in the league standings, with the Merseyside club also having a game in hand. Chelsea will be hoping to close the gap on the leaders over the next few weeks, with several fixtures on the horizon both in the Premier League and the FA Cup.

The Blues will also be mindful of Arsenal in the Premier League title race, with the Gunners now two points adrift of the Blues in the table after beating Crystal Palace at the weekend.

With Boxing Day just around the corner, Chelsea have a busy schedule ahead of them as 2025 also fast approaches. Here, football.london takes a look at the upcoming fixtures for the Blues in all competitions.
