Follow live coverage as Chelsea face Southampton in the Premier League today.

The Blues are desperate to find some consistent winning form, with Graham Potter under some pressure to find a way to gel his expensively put-together squad and lift them from mid-table anonymity. The likes of Myhkailo Mudryk, Enzo Fernandez and Joao Felix all arrived in January but they remain 10th in the table with just one win in six.

Saints, meanwhile, are staring relegation in the face if they don’t improve fast; they have lost their last three, are four points from safety and remain managerless after sacking Nathan Jones are barely three months. Talks with Jesse Marsch did not yield a resolution, meaning Ruben Selles is in the dugout for today’s game.

We will bring you all the action and updates from today's game in the live blog below:

Southampton secure a huge result to defeat Chelsea 1-0 in their Premier League clash at Stamford Bridge. Ruben Selles tastes victory in his first game in interim charge after replacing Nathan Jones courtesy of James Ward-Prowse's free-kick in stoppage time in the first half. The Saints record a league double over Chelsea for the first time since 1993, giving their survival hopes a huge shot in the arm. Chelsea are now winless in their last five matches in all competitions, and have won only one of their last 10, putting Graham Potter under huge pressure in the dugout.

WIDE! Mudryk lines up a blast on the half-volley from the edge of the box. He connects well with his strike, but it sails agonisingly wide of the target.
