Match report

The hosts stunned Chelsea with a shocking treble.

Leeds United earned a precious win at Elland Road against Chelsea (3-1) on Wednesday, in the Premier League's matchweek 14.

Several notable stats stood out, notably Leeds' victory over Chelsea in back-to-back home league meetings for the first time since April 1998, according to Squawka.

The result also marked Daniel Farke's maiden league win over the Blues in the top flight during his managerial career.

According to Opta, Jaka Bijol became the fourth Slovenian to score in Premier League history, after Robert Koren, John Gorinc Stankovic, and Benjamin Sesko.

Squawka also noted Bijol's goal at six minutes, the fastest Chelsea have conceded a corner in the Premier League since January 2011, when Wolves struck after five minutes and 24 seconds.

Meanwhile, Pedro Neto, Chelsea's forward, reached his fifth league goal of the season in 14 games, equalling his best tally, which he achieved with Wolverhampton in 2021-2022 when he scored five in 31 games.

The Portuguese winger also became Chelsea's top scorer so far this season in the Premier League.

Humor corner: Two quick lines to finish: If football were a sniper test, Leeds hit the bullseye. Chelsea's defense looks like it needs a reboot, again.
