Chelsea vs Blackburn Rovers Live: London Blues aim for comeback in EFL Cup

Chelsea had a poor show in both domestic cups last season so they would eye a quarterfinal berth in midweek. The West London club beat strong Brighton in the third round and it can add some inspiration to avoid any upset.

Chelsea are going through a roller-coaster ride and they appear in a small task of the EFL Cup but it might be big considering their previous results against a lower-ranked team. Mauricio Pochettino’s side is coming off a 2-0 defeat to Brentford. Pinnock started the scoring after a goalless draw in first-half and then, Mbeumo netted the final nail in the coffin. It was their fourth loss in the Premier League.

The Blues made similar mistakes against Arsenal when they failed to carry the momentum after scoring two early goals. Chelsea had a poor show in both domestic cups last season so they would eye a quarterfinal berth in midweek. The West London club beat strong Brighton in the third round and it can add some inspiration to avoid any upset.

On the other hand, Blackburn Rovers are here to make surprise and Chelsea are the side where they can hit the bullets. They are coming off a 1-0 defeat to Swansea in the Championship which was their first loss after three consecutive wins. The visiting side lost each of their last four matches against the Blues and their last win came in 2009.
