In the 11th round of the Premier League, Martinelli scored first, and Neto equalized, ultimately resulting in a 1-1 draw between Chelsea and Arsenal at home. With this crucial point, Chelsea climbed to third place in the Premier League table.
Before this round, Chelsea was ranked fourth in the Premier League, behind Liverpool, Manchester City, and Nottingham Forest. Due to Nottingham Forest’s 1-3 loss at home to Newcastle, Chelsea seized the opportunity to overtake them. Currently, Chelsea, along with Arsenal, Nottingham Forest, and Brighton, all have 19 points, but Chelsea sits in third place due to their goal difference advantage over the other three teams.
According to statistics, this is the first time they have entered the top three since the 2021/22 season, making it a moment worth commemorating with a group photo for Chelsea fans. It’s worth noting that in the past two seasons, their final standings were only 12th and 6th, respectively.
