Head to Head


Chelsea beat Barrow 5-0 in the sides’ only previous meeting. 

Chelsea Form


Chelsea have found early season form under Enzo Maresca with four wins from seven fixtures. 

The Blues’ form dipped slightly following a 2-0 loss at Servette and a 1-1 draw against Crystal Palace. Maresca’s side responded with a 1-0 win at Bournemouth after the international break. 

A 3-0 victory over London rivals West Ham came next as Chelsea had 2.4-0.76 XG. Nicolas Jackson’s early brace and a Cole Palmer second-half goal sealed the victory. 

Chelsea Injuries & Team News


Full-back Reece James is sidelined through injury. 

Midfielder Romeo Lavia and defender Malo Gusto are doubtful. 

Maresca is expected to rotate and striker Christopher Nkunku is in line to replace Nicolas Jackson. 

Barrow Form


League Two Barrow progressed in the EFL Cup after a 3-2 win against Port Vale and a 0-0 draw with Derby. The Bluebirds beat Derby 3-2 on penalties to reach the third round.

Stephen Clemence’s team beat Harrogate 1-0, drew 1-1 with Swindon and beat Grimsby 2-1 after advancing in the EFL Cup.

The Cumbrian outfit extended their unbeaten run in the league with a 2-0 victory against Newport. Elliott Newby and Theo Vassell scored in each half to lead Barrow to all three points. 

Barrow Injuries & Team News


Barrow have no injuries or suspensions.

Forward Gerard Garner has scored three goals in all competitions and is expected to lead the line. 

Verdict

Chelsea are improving constantly under Enzo Maresca and look well-balanced in defence and attack. The Blues are unlikely to face many Barrow threats and sticking with a Chelsea win to nil is a solid pick.
