Chelsea form and stats

Chelsea's travelling support has been rewarded for their time and money so far this season, having witnessed Chelsea collect 36 points from their 16 away matches in the Premier League. 11 victories and 3 draws have created these points (and only 2 defeats). A great winning streak in away games for Chelsea as they have managed to win four matches in a row as the visitors. Not since the Brighton & Hove Albion have they travelled home without three points.

Pulišić scored in Chelsea's previous match, the home game against West Ham United that ended 1-0. World class coaching! That was the thoughts of manager Tuchel when Pulišić scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 76th minute. Mendy (goalkeeper) was the best performer with a rating of 7.65. Mendy topped it up with a clean sheet.

A 2-4 loss hosting Arsenal before that.

The visitors will be packing their bags again in only three days as another away game awaits: The Premier League trip to Everton.

The Chelsea manager Tuchel has got the team scoring on the road, with 35 away goals in 16 league matches. They concede less than a goal on average per away game (9 so far). There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 1 of these goals has been conceded in their last three away matches.
