From the source

Chelsea have an excellent record under referee Jarred Gillett ahead of their Premier League clash with Sunderland this weekend. The Blues have won their last five matches officiated by the Australian, including the 6-3 EFL Cup victory over Leeds in September.

Gillett will take charge of Sunday’s meeting at the Stadium of Light, adding an interesting subplot to the encounter. His previous appointments have generally brought positive results for Chelsea over the past five seasons.

Chelsea’s recent record under Jarred Gillett is particularly encouraging, with their last five matches all ending in victory. The Blues’ most recent outing was their 6-3 EFL Cup win over Leeds in September, while they also beat the same opponents 1-0 in the FA Cup semi-finals in April.
