Chelsea have not been in the richest vein of form of late.
A 2-0 win against Tottenham before the break was badly needed but only narrowed the gap between themselves and Manchester City to 10 points. Pep Guardiola's men also boast a game in hand.
Thomas Tuchel has his work cut out if he hopes to add a Premier League title to his CV but with the Blues still alive and kicking in the FA Cup, Champions League and into the final of the Carabao Cup, there is still plenty to be optimistic about in west London.
