With just two wins in 14 matches Chelsea's form has continued on a downward spiral with just one win coming in 2023 so far. Their away Champions League trip to Borussia Dortmund offered the chance to forget some of the domestic woes.
Instead, the match was a stark reminder of what the Blues are still missing and also the frustration that is still lingering for fans. Despite a much improved performance from recent weeks the 1-0 loss at the hands of Edin Terzic's side still bites.
Chelsea have accumulated an xG of 11.06 in their last seven games but scored just three times. Against Dortmund they had more shots, shots on target and shots per half but still fell short when it mattered in the box. Joao Felix spurned two massive opportunities in the first half, hitting the bar with one before Kalidou Koulibaly couldn't convert his second half drive either.
