Chelsea lose yet another Premier League game as they failed to recover from Cunha’s first-half goal in the game against Manchester United.

Chelsea are in deep trouble as their loss to Manchester United puts them at high-risk of losing out on Champions League places.

Chelsea were by a large margin, the better team, but they couldn’t translate that into the game. They had most of the ball but fell to a first-half goal from Matheus Cunha. 

In the second half, they gave Manchester United a run for their money, but then, they couldn’t find the back of the net, They hit the bar twice and were just unlucky in the final third. 

At full-time, Chelsea had now lost four games in a row in the Premier League for the first time in 28 years. They also won just one game from their last seven and have not scored a goal since March 4th.

There’s more bad news for the Blues as Chelsea saw Estevao leave the field early in the first half due to injury, while Joao Pedro didn’t play or feature in the matchday squad due to a thigh injury.

Chelsea face Brighton next, who played a 2-2 draw vs Tottenham, as they look to salvage the rest of their season.
