5 clubs with the best defense in the world this season

#2 Chelsea

Luiz has been an extremely important defender for Chelsea

Maurizio Sarri's introduction brought back the good ole' back four system to the Stamford Bridge, keeping the 'Park the Bus' system alive. Both David Luiz and Antonio Rudiger have been able to keep their heads high and have executed some of the most important defensive plays that the Chelsea fans are happy to see. In order to keep their defense tighter, their holding midfielders N'golo Kante and Jorginho have had a great time dismantling the opposition midfield, and have the ability to link up the play with their forwards.

The fact that the Blues have had a dream start to their season, Maurizio Sarri has aligned his defense in a manner that only 7 goals have been conceded so far this season, and this has been their best start since the 2016/17 Premier League season. An important thing to also note here is the fact that they are the contenders to win the Europa League this season.
