After four days, Thomas Tuchel saw his side suffer a 3-1 defeat on account of Real Madrid in the main leg of their Champions League quarter-final.
The twofold mishap was the first time since September that Chelsea had experienced two losses in succession, and they will offer to try not to make that three on the South Coast.
Should the Saints win at St Mary's, it will be a third progressive loss for Chelsea, interestingly beginning around 2002, when the West Londoners were overseen by Claudio Ranieri.
In that event, Chelsea lost to West Ham United and Liverpool in the Premier League, with an unexpected 4-2 misfortune on account of Viking FK coming in the UEFA Cup.
