Can Chelsea Get Back to Winning Ways?

Chelsea looked on course to claim a top-four place and secure a spot in next season’s UEFA Champions League. However, Enzo Maresca’s men have dropped the ball after claiming just two wins in ten Premier League fixtures.

Southampton are on their way back to the EFL Championship after a dismal season in England’s top tier. The Saints have struggled against the elite sides, winning just two of 26 league matches.

Chelsea’s dip in for has seen them slip to seventh, though the London side are still in the mix for Europe. Manchester City hold fourth, with the Blues just a point behind. Only four points separate fourth to ninth.

Southampton are rock bottom of the Premier League table with a mere nine points to their name. Last weekend, Ivan Juric’s troops suffered a heavy 4-0 home defeat to Brighton & Hove Albion.
