Scores again Jackson scored one goal to go with three shots (two on goal) and one chance created in Sunday's 3-0 victory against Aston Villa.
Impact Jackson took a low cross from Marc Cucurella to score with his left foot. The former has scored in back-to-back games, which he did twice before this season. For Chelsea, the coming week will feature two away games, Wednesday at Southampton and Sunday at Tottenham. But, if Jackson's previous away form is anything to go by, he could be just fine. Among his eight goals and three assists, five goals and two assists were logged on visitor grounds.

Interception for goal Jackson scored one goal to go with three shots (three on goal), one cross (one accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 2-1 victory over Leicester City.

He was on the verge of finishing November without any scored, but that will not be problematic going into December. Jackson has been on an excellent goal-scoring pace throughout the second half of the 2024 calendar year, scoring seven times in 12 games.

Selflessness results in assist Jackson assisted once to go with five shots (two on goal) and one chance created during Chelsea's 4-2 win Saturday against Brighton & Hove Albion.
Impact During the game's 20th minute, Jackson had a one-on-one chance against Brighton goalkeeper Bart Verbruggen. But with Cole Palmer coming up the Senegalese forward's right side and in open space, he selflessly passed what could have been his fifth goal since August. The pass worked out well for everyone involved. Palmer logged his first of four goals Saturday, and Jackson has three assists across six appearances of the 2024-25 Premier League.

Ready to go for opener Jackson (ankle) is available for Sunday's clash with Manchester City, according to manager Enzo Maresca. "The rest are fit and they will be available."
Impact Jackson is set to be an option for the opening match of the season, a tough clash with Manchester City. The striker wasn't at his best last time out, but seems to be in a good spot for a strong return. If Jackson and Christopher Nkunku could form a strong partnership they could build on the impressive form Chelsea found at the end of last season.

Inching closer to returning Jackson (ankle) is "still doing some work apart from the team but hopefully next week they can start to train" with the team, according to manager Enzo Maresca.
Impact Jackson continues to recover from a severe ankle sprain sustained while playing with Senegal. He is not far from rejoining team training, but it is doubtful he will be ready for the opening Premier League match against Manchester City. If Jackson is unable to play, Christopher Nkunku will likely start at forward. He made 31 starts in 35 league appearances during his first season with Chelsea, scoring 14 goals and providing five assists.
