Chelsea vs Leicester City: Post-match Performance Analysis

This report was built as part of a personal project of mine called The Tactical Bridge, where I used publicly available data sources to produce data-driven pre-match opposition analysis and post-match performance analysis for Chelsea FC fixtures in the second half of the 2024-2025 Premier League Season. Throughout this project, I made use of publicly available sources of data such as Opta via FBRef and WhoScored.com. Additionally, the broadcast clips have been taken from the Premier League official streaming partner in India Disney+ Hotstar, and have been telestrated on by myself.

The attached report is a data-driven post-match performance analysis report on Chelsea's home fixture against Leicester City on 9th March, 2025.

Chelsea secured a narrow but well-earned 1-0 victory over Leicester City in a Premier League clash that saw them dominate possession but struggle to break down a stubborn defensive setup. Marc Cucurella’s 60th-minute goal was the difference in a match where patience and tactical discipline proved crucial.
