Brentford secure first home win over Chelsea since 1938 with 3-0 victory

Brentford defeated Chelsea 3-0 at home, marking their first home win against Chelsea since 1938. This result leaves Brentford unbeaten and third in the Premier League table.

  • Brentford achieved their first home win against Chelsea since 1938.
  • The victory means Brentford remain unbeaten and are currently third in the league table.
  • Chelsea have now gone three games without a win after starting the season with two victories.

Brentford secured a decisive 3-0 home victory over Chelsea, marking their first home win against the Blues since 1938. This result maintains Brentford's unbeaten run and places them third in the Premier League standings.

The goals came in the second half, with Jaidon Anthony scoring his first goal since his summer move from Burnley on the hour mark. Igor Thiago added a second seven minutes from time, and Fábio Carvalho sealed the win with a third goal in stoppage time.

Chelsea, who began the season with two chaotic wins, have now gone three games without a victory. Jordan Henderson made his full Chelsea debut, while Danny Welbeck, Pep Chavarría, and Valentín Barco made their first league starts.

The match also saw Todd Boehly and Mark Walter agree to sell their 12.8% stakes in Chelsea to major shareholder Clearlake Capital, making this their first game since the agreement.

Why this matters: Brentford's continued strong performance suggests European qualification could be a possibility for the club.
