8. Chelsea
Points per game: 2.24
Despite everything Jose Mourinho says to the contrary, Chelsea lead the Premier League and should therefore be considered favourites for the title.
Or at the very least, amongst the favourites.
Mourinho is putting together a formidable team in form ominous for their rivals – as their recent defeat of Manchester City proved.
The Portuguese boss is also developing Eden Hazard into an attacking threat modelled on Real Madrid superstar Cristiano Ronaldo, and the Belgian is growing with every game.
The marrying of technical brilliance and immense work rate amongst Hazard’s team mates makes the Blues a threat both domestically and in the UEFA Champions League, and they are only improving.
