Chelsea have been affected by various factors, only playing 26 league games before this, and although the results are not comparable to Manchester City, they are not bad overall, ranking 3rd. In the last three league rounds, Chelsea have won. This time Chelsea are facing bottom-up Team Norwich. Norwich city has been in very bad shape, losing five in a row in all competitions. Chelsea had previously remained unbeaten in 18 games against Norwich, this time beating Norwich again, with the score at 3-1, with Charloba, Mount and Havertz scoring one goal each. Chelsea started the game well, with Chaloba and Mount scoring early, but when Puki pulled a goal back from a penalty, it became full of variables and it wasn't until Havertz scored in the final moments that Tuchel was completely relieved.
In addition to this Chelsea game, there were three other Premier League games on the night: Newcastle United against Southampton, Wolves against Watford and Leeds United against Aston Villa.
