Chelsea’s win was just the 10th time in Premier League history that a side scored 5+ goals in their first away game of the season, with the Blues also the last to do so, winning 6-2 away to Wolves last season.

Chelsea have now won six of their last eight Premier League meetings with West Ham United (D1 L1), and overall have 32 wins in the competition against the Hammers, only beating Spurs more often (37).

Highlights.

Estêvão becomes the youngest player in Premier League history to assist a goal for Chelsea (18 years, 120 days).

West Ham have shipped eight goals across their first two games of a top-flight campaign for the first time ever.

Lucas Paquetá is only the third player to score West Ham’s first goal of a Premier League campaign in two seasons in a row, after Paolo Di Canio (2000-01/2001-02) and Mark Noble (2009-10/2010-11).

West Ham United lost 3-0 to Sunderland on MD1 this season, and have started a Premier League season with consecutive defeats on eight previous occasions, most recently in 2022-23. Only Southampton (9) have lost both of their first two matches in a Premier League campaign more often than the Hammers.

West Ham have won just two of their ten home Premier League matches under Graham Potter (D3 L4), picking up nine points. No Hammers manager has ever won fewer than 10 points in their first 10 home games in the competition, with 10 points the lowest currently by both Alan Curbishley and Avram Grant.
