Chelsea Football Club’s significant investment in new players has not translated into the expected success in the Premier League. Despite a resounding 6-2 victory over Wolverhampton in their previous match, Chelsea managed only a 1-1 draw against Crystal Palace at home. The draw brings their tally to just one win in the first three league matches of the season.
Crystal Palace’s Eberechi Eze leveled the score with a splendid curling shot from the edge of the penalty area in the 53rd minute, ensuring a point for his team. Meanwhile, Chelsea, who spent approximately $290 million on 12 new signings, with only Pedro Neto starting against Palace. It was Nicolas Jackson, a signing from the previous year, who opened the scoring in the 25th minute after a pass from Cole Palmer.
Chelsea currently sits on four points out of a possible nine, starting the season with a loss to Manchester City. Newcastle maintained their unbeaten run with a 2-1 victory over Tottenham, thanks to Alexander Isak’s 78th-minute winning goal at St. James’ Park. Dan Burn’s own goal in the 56th minute equalized after Harvey Barnes’ opener in the 37th minute.
In another significant match, Manchester United is set to face off against Liverpool later on Sunday, a historic fixture in English football. The outcome of this match will undoubtedly draw the attention of fans and analysts alike to see how both teams perform in this critical encounter.
