Chelsea vs Servette

Chelsea have put behind the 0-2 loss at the hands of Manchester City in their opening Premier League 2024-25 encounter with a 2-0 win over Servette in the Europa Conference League Leg 1 of the playoff.

Christopher Nkunku opened the goalscoring account for The Blues in the beginning of the second half via a penalty. Noni Madueke netted the other goal in the 76th minute as The Blues took home a 2-0 advantage heading into the second half.

This was the first victory of Chelsea under their new coach Enzo Maresca and he would be quite happy with his team’s performance. It was Enzo Maresca who had guided Leicester City to the Premier League in this season after finishing at the top of the points table in the EFL Championship 2023-24.

“We are learning how to manage the game. It was important to win the game with nine changes. There were many good things,” said Enzo Maresca after the win.

Chelsea had finished in the 6th position in the Premier League in the previous edition and had qualified for the UEFA Conference League. They would be looking to win this league and present a strong case in the Premier League as well.

Chelsea next lock horns with Wolves

Enzo Maresca and co. next cross swords with Wolves on 25th August 2024 at the Molineux Stadium. Chelsea lost to Manchester City in their opening game as Erling Haaland and Mateo Kovacic had scored the goals for The Cityzens.

Chelsea had won 1 game and had lost 1 against Wolves in the previous season. Most recently, they played a game together in the Premier League on 4th February 2024 and Chelsea had lost that game 2-4.

Cole Palmer and Thiago Silva had netted the goals for Chelsea while Matheus Cunha had scored a hattrick for Wolves. Axel Disasi had netted an own goal in this game, which gave the Wolves, their 4th goal of the game.

Wolves lost 0-2 at the hands of Arsenal in their opening game of the Premier League 2024-25. Kai Havertz and Bukayo Saka found their names on the goalscoring sheet for The Gunners in this game.
