Both their winning streaks in the Premier League and in away matches were snapped when Manchester City beat them 2-1 at the Eithad. They then played against Valencia and looked prime to win the match. However, a moment of carelessness from Kepa saw the Spanish side equalise. Their fortunes saw no difference when they hosted West Ham in the Premier League last week as they lost 0-1.

They finally broke their winless run during the match against Aston Villa at home. Tammy Abraham broke the deadlock in the 24^th minute. Aston Villa equalised through Mahmoud Hassan just before half-time. Mason Mount then swung the match in Chelsea’s favour minutes after half-time. Chelsea went on to win the match 2-1.
