Chelsea Squanders Victories at Stamford Bridge.. A Worrying Number Revives Memories from 3 Decades Ago

Chelsea continued to drop points at Stamford Bridge, after drawing with Burnley 1-1 in the 27th round of the Premier League, in a match where the London team was close to securing a win but failed to maintain their lead until the end.

Statistics showed that Chelsea is the Premier League team that has squandered the most points at home this season after taking the lead, losing 17 points from matches where they were ahead, a number that reflects the team’s struggles in managing games and maintaining their advantage.

This number is the second-worst tally for the club in a single season at Stamford Bridge in Premier League history, with Chelsea only surpassing this number of squandered points in the 1995-1996 season when they lost 20 points after being ahead.

These figures highlight the problems the team is facing this season, especially on the defensive and mental levels, putting the coaching staff and players under significant pressure to improve results in the coming rounds.
