Chelsea’s Premier League Position and Recent Performance

Chelsea currently sits third in the Premier League standings, following a hard-fought 1-1 draw against Arsenal. In a setback from that match, Moises Caicedo received a red card, resulting in a suspension for this evening’s game. Additionally, injuries have sidelined players Levi Colwill, Romeo Lavia, and Dario Essugo, prompting Maresca to rotate the squad for better performance.
