Atleti were held to a goal-less draw by Roma on matchday 1. While Chelsea celebrated their return to Champions League with a 6-0 win against debutants Qarabag FK.

Since the surprise defeat to Burnley in the Premier League opener, Chelsea are unbeaten in 7 games in all competitions, collecting 6 wins in the process. Away from home, the Blue won three on the bounce netting 8 goals in total.
