Late Danger

Chelsea are developing a knack for scoring late goals under new boss Maurizio Sarri. 

The Blues came back from a 1-0 deficit to eliminate Liverpool in the third round of the Carabao Cup at Anfield on Wednesday - Emerson and Eden Hazard scoring two goals in the last 15 minutes of the match.

A look at Chelsea's goalscoring in the Premier League suggests the late drama at Anfield was no fluke; the Blues netting 7 (of their 17) top flight goals between 76 and 90+ minutes this season - more than any top 4 tier team.

Chelsea are the king of late goals aren’t we?

Hazard is revelling under new boss Sarri - his strike on Wednesday his 6th goal for the Blues this season.

However, Liverpool will have an opportunity to avenge their midweek cup defeat in the Premier League this Saturday, this time at Stamford Bridge.
