Chelsea Stats 2025-2026

Chelsea's statistics in the 2025-2026 Premier League reveal a team making progress but still lacking consistency. With 49 points from 28 matches (5th) and a goal difference of +20, the Blues are improving on the previous season. An xG of 48.2 against 52 actual goals indicates offensive overperformance, largely attributable to Cole Palmer's conversion rate exceeding 25%.

Chelsea's attack totals 52 goals in 28 matches (1.86 per game), a figure driven by Cole Palmer (18 goals, 9 assists). The 23-year-old Englishman is directly responsible for 52% of the team's goal involvements, a dependency that raises long-term concerns. Nicolas Jackson (10 goals) has improved as a number 9 but remains inconsistent in his finishing. Possession of 57.1% and 15.4 shots per match show a dominant style that is not always converted into goals.

Chelsea's defence concedes 32 goals in 28 matches (1.14 per game), a clear improvement. An xGA of 34.6 suggests the defence is slightly overperforming, potentially thanks to Robert Sanchez's displays (73% save rate). Wesley Fofana (when fit) and Levi Colwill form a promising centre-back partnership. The 9 clean sheets are progress compared to 5 at the same stage last season. The weakness remains defensive set pieces: 8 goals conceded from dead-ball situations.
