Comments:

League position: 16th With two wins and two draws from their first eight games, this became Chelsea's worst start to a season in any division since 1978-79. 37 years earlier, Ken Shellito's Blues won one and drew two of their first eight outings in a League Division One campaign that ended in relegation. Champions Chelsea had now conceded at least two goals in seven of their eight Premier League games in 2015-16. They had now conceded 17 goals in their eight Premier League games in 2015-16. In Jose Mourhinho's first Premier Leaguwe season in charge (2004-05), the Blues conceded a total of just 15 goals (38 games).

Comments:

League position: 9th Southampton had only won one of the last 13 meetings with Chelsea (lost seven). Their last win at Stamford Bridge was on New Year's Day in 2002. The Saints came into this game without a win in their last ten away Premier League games (lost six). Maya Yoshida replaced Sadio Mane in second minute of added time in the second half.
