Highlights
▶
Recent history between these clubs has often been defined by tight fixtures, encapsulated by a 2-2 draw back in December 2025 where neither side could decisively separate themselves.
The hosts arrived on October 10, 2026, for this Premier League matchday six fixture having endured a three-match winless run across all competitions, while the visitors crossed the pitch looking to arrest a seven-match winless sequence.
A 5-1 scoreline dramatically reshaped the standings as the hosts surged from tenth up to fifth place in the twenty-team table, leaving the visitors sitting twelve points behind leaders Man City.
Jordan Henderson earned a standout 9.5 rating after netting in the 2nd minute from a C. Palmer assist, scoring again in the 70th minute, and setting up M. Rogers in the 3rd minute. João Pedro added goals in the 46th (assisted by P. Neto) and 67th minute (assisted by P. Chavarria) to claim an 8.3 rating, rendering Evanilson’s 51st-minute reply—which earned the visitor a 7.6 rating alongside Ryan Christie's 7.2—only a consolation.
Chelsea next play away at Everton on 17 October.
