Chelsea

Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca offered a candid assessment of his side's latest setback after a frustrating 0-0 draw against Bournemouth on the south coast.

Manchester City secured a second successive Premier League victory at home against Sunderland, Chelsea were held scoreless away to Bournemouth while Tottenham managed to beat Brentford.

Enzo Maresca has admitted Chelsea are still unsure when Romeo Lavia will return, as the Belgian's injury problems continued to disrupt their midfield plans ahead of Saturday's trip to Bournemouth.

Enzo Maresca admitted that Cole Palmer's long-awaited return was "the only good news" on a punishing Wednesday night for Chelsea, who were beaten 3-1 by a sharp Leeds United side at Elland Road.

Leeds United hauled themselves out of the relegation zone with an energised 3-1 victory over Chelsea on Wednesday, a result that relieved growing pressure on manager Daniel Farke.

Enzo Maresca urged calm after Chelsea recorded another 1-1 draw with Arsenal, the second successive season in which the derby has ended with that scoreline at Stamford Bridge.

Mikel Arteta said Arsenal had produced "a hugely positive week" after his Premier League leaders fought back to draw 1-1 with 10-man Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea went toe-to-toe with Arsenal earning a 1-1 draw at Stamford Bridge despite playing most of the match with just 10 players on the pitch.

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta says his team is "super motivated" for their Premier League clash against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Sunday.
