Brentford Hammer London Neighbours Chelsea 3-0
- On Friday, September 18, 2026, Brentford defeated Chelsea 3-0 at the Gtech Community Stadium in a West London derby, moving manager Keith Andrews' side up to third in the Premier League table.
- Chelsea manager Xabi Alonso saw his squad extend their winless run to three matches, hampered by the absence of injured playmaker Joao Pedro during the West London derby.
- Jaidon Anthony headed home in the 61st minute from Mikkel Damsgaard's corner, with Igor Thiago adding his first league goal of the season and substitute Fabio Carvalho sealing victory in injury time.

- Despite summer transfer investments, Chelsea struggled to find cohesion, with Jordan Henderson and Danny Welbeck making their first Premier League starts as Alonso faces mounting pressure after recent dropped points.
