Liverpool and Chelsea Stumble in the Premier League with Home Draws

Fulham earned their first Premier League point under Alvaro Arbeloa after Liverpool failed to score despite fielding three £100 million-plus attackers.

  • On Saturday, September 12, 2026, Chelsea drew 2-2 with newly promoted Hull City at Stamford Bridge, stalling the hosts' momentum while extending Hull's unbeaten Premier League start to four matches.
  • Hull City manager Sergej Jakirovic, named Premier League Manager of the Month for August, solidified his team's disciplined approach, while Chelsea's defensive vulnerabilities persisted, extending their clean-sheet drought to 20 games.
  • Chelsea midfielder Morgan Rogers opened the scoring in the seventh minute, but Hull winger Mohamed Belloumi's first-half brace gave visitors a lead before Chelsea forward Joao Pedro's 66th-minute strike restored parity.
  • Hull moved to third place with eight points from four matches, while Liverpool's goalless draw at Anfield against Fulham left the Reds sixth, unable to maintain pressure on the leaders.
  • Despite an extraordinary summer rebuild featuring 11 signings for £349 million, Chelsea head coach Xabi Alonso's side remains vulnerable defensively, unable to secure a clean sheet in their opening matches.
