Chelsea head to Bournemouth on Saturday evening looking to do something they haven’t managed in their last 20 Premier League away games.
The Blues have endured a mixed start to the season with four points from their opening three games and will be looking to return to winning ways against the Cherries.
Enzo Maresca’s side have looked good going forward, as demonstrated by the six goals scored against Wolves, but still look vulnerable defensively.
Chelsea are yet to keep a clean sheet in the league this season and will be hoping to record their first shut out against Andoni Iraola’s men.
In fact according to BBC Sport the Blues shockingly haven’t managed a clean sheet in their last 20 Premier League away games, their longest run since the 1993/1994 campaign.
That run needs to be ended as soon as possible and Chelsea have got to learn to start keeping clean sheets again as they won’t always be able to rely on scoring two or three goals every game.
