Thomas Tuchel bidding to equal Carlo Ancelotti record at Chelsea

Thomas Tuchel will be looking to become the first Chelsea manager since Carlo Ancelotti in 2009 to win his first three Premier League away matches when the Blues face Southampton.

Thomas Tuchel will be looking to become the first Chelsea boss since Carlo Ancelotti in 2009 to win his first three Premier League away matches when the Blues face Southampton on Saturday afternoon.

Chelsea have been in impressive form since the change of management at the end of January, winning five of their six matches in all competitions.

The Blues have beaten Tottenham Hotspur and Sheffield United on the road in their last two league encounters, meanwhile, and a win at St Mary's in Saturday's early start would see Tuchel become the London club's first head coach since Ancelotti in 2009 to record victories in his first three Premier League away fixtures.

The six-time English champions will enter the clash off the back of a 2-0 win over Newcastle United on Monday night courtesy of goals from Olivier Giroud and Timo Werner.

Chelsea are now fourth in the Premier League table, level on points with fifth-placed West Ham United but just four points behind Manchester United in second.

Southampton, meanwhile, have lost their last six in the league to slip down into 13th.
