Goals For And Against

Ziyech

The Blues were averaging 1.125 goals a game in the eight league matches before the break for the World Cup. In terms of conceding, they averaged exactly one per game.

After the tournament in Qatar, Potter’s side have scored 0.71 goals per game, and conceded 0.57 per 90 minutes.

It means that, while Chelsea have tightened things up at the back, they have actually gone backwards in the final third of the pitch.
