=4) Chelsea  (+2)

The Blues have had an incredible 5 decisions go in their favour due to VAR, but another 3 have gone against them.

Two of these came on the opening day of the season when Liverpool’s Mo Salah and Chelsea’s Ben Chilwell both had goals chalked off for offside.

The next incident went against Chelsea, with Malo Gusto being sent off against Aston Villa. 3 penalties were given for Mauricio Pochettino’s team (against Arsenal, Tottenham and Brighton), while another was awarded against them (v Manchester United).

There were two more VAR decisions in the win over Palace in December (an offside goal given against Nicolas Jackson and a penalty awarded after a foul by Eberechi Eze). The last incident came at the end of the same month when a Luton goal by Elijah Adebayo was given offside.
