CHELSEA have supposedly had the easiest start to the Premier League season despite sitting 14th in the table.<\/p>\n
Mauricio Pochettino's men have struggled to find their best form having only picked up one win this season.<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
This is despite Opta's power rankings claiming that the Blues' first five games of the season were the easiest out of any of the clubs in the Premier League.<\/p>\n
The solo victory came against newly promoted Luton Town at Stamford Bridge in August.<\/p>\n
Since the win, Chelsea have lost to Nottingham Forest at home and drawn away at Bournemouth, two teams that battled relegation last season.<\/p>\n
The Blues were also heavily beaten by London rivals West Ham in their second game of the season.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
This means that with the win over Luton and the season-opening draw against Liverpool, the club only has five points and are ten points behind Manchester City in first.<\/p>\n
Despite Chelsea's poor start on the pitch, a supercomputer has backed the Blues to recover and finish 7th in the league.<\/p>\n
This would be enough to see the club return to European football as they would qualify for the Conference League.<\/p>\n
Tottenham however have started the season in fine form and are unbeaten after their opening five fixtures.<\/p>\n
