Chelsea had a golden opportunity to turn their 4th-place hopes into a very real chase for 3rd in the Premier League, but Enzo Maresca's side settled for a scoreless draw with fellow west Londoners Brentford on Sunday.
BRENTFORD 0-0 CHELSEA - Highlights, recap & analysis
Maresca rested Cole Palmer, Nicolas Jackson and Pedro Neto from the start (all three came on in the second half) with an eye (or two) focused on Thursday's Europa Conference League trip to Poland, where they will face Legia Warsaw in the first leg of their quarterfinal tie. Brentford had the game's best scoring chances — both inside the final 10 minutes — even if they were out-shot 21-9 on the day.
