Chelsea secured a narrow 1-0 victory over Everton on Saturday at Stamford Bridge, with Nicolas Jackson’s first-half goal proving decisive.
Jackson struck in the 27th minute, finishing off a well-placed assist from Enzo Fernández. Despite dominating possession and creating multiple opportunities, the Blues were unable to extend their lead but held firm to claim all three points.
The win bolsters Chelsea’s position in the Premier League standings, where they now sit fourth with 60 points from 34 matches (17 wins, 9 draws, 8 losses). They’ve scored 59 goals and conceded 40, giving them a goal difference of +19.
Everton, on the other hand, remain in the lower half of the table after another frustrating outing. Despite showing resilience, the Toffees couldn’t find a breakthrough and continue to struggle for form.
At the top of the table, Liverpool leads with 79 points from 33 matches, trailed by Arsenal (67 points from 34 games). Manchester City holds third place with 61 points, just one ahead of Chelsea, while Nottingham Forest sits fifth, level on points with the Blues but behind on goal difference.
