Worth mentioning: After suffering the first domestic loss under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, Manchester United lost another six matches and won just two – exactly the kind of form which saw Jose Mourinho gone. The Red Devils are on a streak of three straight losses and were unable to score a single goal in them. Looking into the last five games at Old Trafford, we find that the three victories achieved by the Reds all produced over 2,5 goals and saw both involved teams scoring, while the two losses were with less than three goals and to nil.
After going on a run of four straight wins, three of which with a clean sheet, Chelsea looked like a genuine contenders for top 4, but the next three matches saw them losing focus in defense and concede seven goals. If the loss to Liverpool might have been expected, for sure the home draw with Burnley in the most recent game was not and Chelsea were unable to find a winner for 70 minutes of play. Four of their last five visits saw only one of the sides scoring.
