Chelsea's defensive woes continue as Brentford win derby

Report and free match highlights as Brentford beat Chelsea 3-0 in the west London derby; Jaidon Anthony, Igor Thiago and Fabio Carvalho struck in the second half; Brentford up to third, Chelsea now three games without a win in the Premier League

Chelsea's defensive and set-piece woes continued under Xabi Alonso as Brentford claimed an emphatic 3-0 victory in the west London derby.

It was all too easy for Brentford to win it as first Mikkel Damsgaard's corner was nodded across by Jannik Schuster, leaving Jaidon Anthony to nod home unmarked from a few yards out.

Then with Chelsea pushing for a leveller and moving to a back four, Brentford hit the Blues on the counter as Kevin Schade broke through. His one-on-one was saved by Emiliano Martinez but Igor Thiago struck home from close range to end his seven-game goal drought.

And with virtually the last kick of the game, Fabio Carvalho scored his first Premier League goal since his near-year-long injury lay-off after tucking home Schade's cross while unmarked at the far post.

Chelsea have now conceded 12 goals - the most in the league - from five Premier League games as the wait for their first top-flight clean sheet of the season goes on.

Unimpressive in defence, but in attack, Chelsea weren't much better - clearly missing the injured Joao Pedro, with replacement Danny Welbeck failing to generate any clear chances in his place.

Moises Caicedo was another big miss, with his replacement being Jordan Henderson, who made an unsuccessful first start for the Blues at the club he joined them from.
