The team from Craven Cottage confirmed their mid-table status last season, finishing 11th with 54 points. Not much has changed this year—yes, they have as many defeats as wins, but overall their distance from the relegation zone remains comfortable. In the last round against Liverpool, they managed to avoid defeat thanks to a goal in stoppage time.
The giants from Stamford Bridge restored their status in 2024/2025, returning to the top four. They also added new titles—the Conference League and the Club World Cup. Currently, they are managing to maintain their level, although it has not been easy. The team has already reached the semi-finals of the League Cup and has virtually secured a place in the Champions League playoffs. In the Premier League, they had a difficult stretch at the turn of the summer. Following a loss to Aston Villa and a draw with Bournemouth, the Italian manager was dismissed! Without him, they managed to equalize late against Manchester City.
