Chelsea have lost two games in a row now – hardly the form you'd expect from a team expected to ride well in every competition they enter this season.
The Blues face Southampton in the Premier League next knowing that they can't afford to drop points at this fluid stage of the season if they want to avoid being left behind early on.
Thomas Tuchel has been widely lauded while things have gone well, now we're about to see how he performs in a downturn. Saying that, it's hardly shameful to lose to Manchester City and Juventus – 1-0 apiece.
Southampton are yet to win in 2021/22 and it would take a mighty effort to end that streak against Chelsea.

Our prediction: Chelsea v Southampton
Chelsea haven't had a good week, but their results are not shameful or surprising given that they are indeed a mortal, fallible team up against European heavyweights.
They're about to embark on a six-game streak of favourable fixtures that have Fantasy Premier League managers purring. This is a critical spell for them.
Winning games against sides they're expected to beat is absolutely pivotal to staying in the title race this season given how many runners and riders are in the mix.
Our prediction: Chelsea 2-0 Southampton (6/1 at bet365).
