Chelsea will be without several first-team players for their Barclays Premier League clash with Fulham at Craven Cottage. New signing Yuri Zhirkov is sidelined with a knee injury while Juliano Belletti (Achilles) and defender Alex (groin) are also set to miss out for Carlo Ancelotti's men. Joe Cole (knee) and Paulo Ferreira (knee) return to training with the first team next Tuesday.
