Keeps clean sheet in victory
Sanchez kept a clean sheet to go with zero saves in Saturday's 7-0 FA Cup quarterfinal win over Port Vale.
Analysis: Sanchez did not have to come up with a single save as Port Vale failed to put any shot on target over the full 90 minutes, with Chelsea's defensive shape and nonstop pressure completely shutting down the League One side and preventing any real danger. The Spaniard finally came away with a clean sheet after going without one in his previous six appearances. His last Premier League clean sheet came against Brentford on Jan. 17, and he may have to wait a bit before picking up the next one with Chelsea set to face Manchester City next Sunday.
Five saves in loss
Sanchez recorded five saves and allowed three goals in Saturday's 3-0 loss versus Everton.
Analysis: Sanchez had a good individual performance despite the three goals allowed, making five saves with an aerial won against Everton. This was the first time the keeper has conceded three goals in a PL game since Dec 3, letting in 24 goals in the last 15 appearances, making 55 saves with 13 high claims and keeping three clean sheets in that span. He will face off with Manchester City for the next league appearance of April 12, who have scored seven goals in the last five contests.
Concedes three goals
Sanchez recorded two saves and allowed three goals in Tuesday's 3-0 defeat versus Paris Saint-Germain.
Analysis: Sanchez made two saves and conceded three goals in Tuesday's 3-0 defeat to PSG, frequently left exposed by his defense. The goalkeeper, who did not feature in the first leg, continues to compete with Filip Jorgensen, though the latter's injury could allow him to secure a run of starts and build momentum. He concludes his Champions League campaign with 18 saves, 12 goals conceded and two clean sheets in eight appearances, and will aim to respond against Everton on Saturday.
Four saves for defeat
Sanchez recorded four saves and allowed one goal in Saturday's 1-0 loss to Newcastle United.
Analysis: Sanchez stopped four of the five shots he faced during Saturday's loss. The goalkeeper made some big saves but just couldn't do enough to keep the clean sheet. With no goal support from the team in front of him he was left saddled with a disappointing loss despite a decent showing. He's going to be tested heavily during a clash with PSG on Tuesday.
Allows two in loss
Sanchez had three saves and allowed two goals in Sunday's 2-1 defeat against Arsenal.
Analysis: Sanchez struggled at times, conceding two goals from corner kicks, but denied Arsenal on several occasions to finish with three saves.

Concedes in away win with two saves

This is the first time in the Premier League since mid-Decemeber that he has made fewer than three saves.
Four saves Saturday

Analysis: Sanchez allowed two first half goals, making four saves during the win Saturday.

Strong performance in goal
Sanchez made six saves and allowed zero goals in Saturday's 2-0 victory against Brentford.
Analysis: Sanchez was undoubtedly one of the best performers, keeping Chelsea in the game with six saves, including two crucial stops to prevent an own goal from Tosin Adarabioyo and another from Kevin Schade. The clean sheet came at an important moment, as he had struggled recently, conceding 11 goals across his last five matches. He will aim to maintain this form when Chelsea return to Champions League action against Pafos on Wednesday.
Concedes twice in loss
Sanchez recorded three saves and allowed two goals in Wednesday's 2-1 loss against Fulham.
Analysis: Sanchez turned-aside three of five Fulham shots on target Wednesday as 10-man Chelsea were outlasted in a 2-1 road defeat. The appearance marks the keeper's return from a mild strain that caused him to miss Chelsea's previous fixture. Across his last five starting appearances, Sanchez has produced 18 saves and seven clearances while conceding eight goals and recording one clean sheet. Look for Sanchez between the sticks when Chelsea return to league play Jan. 17 vs Brentford.
Starting against Fulham
Sanchez (strain) is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's match against Fulham.
Analysis: Sanchez missed only one game due to the injury and has returned for the midweek contest at the expense of Filip Jorgensen, who is now on the bench. The regular keeper will look to improve on his season numbers of 56 saves, 26 goals conceded and 10 clean sheets in 24 games played.
Could be available Wednesday
Sanchez (strain) is expected to train on Tuesday and could be back available for Wednesday's clash against Fulham, interim coach Calum McFarlane said in the press conference. "Yes, they are all training today. We are training in a few hours, and they will all be taking part in the session today. We will have a better idea [on availability] after the session. But at this point, nobody is ruled out. We will look at training, see how the guys look [after the session] and then make a call after that."
Analysis: Sanchez missed the last game against Manchester City due to a muscular injury but is expected to train on Tuesday and will undergo a late fitness call after the training session ahead of Wednesday's clash against Fulham. If Sanchez can't make the squad against the Cottagers, Filip Jorgensen is expected to start again between the posts for the Blues.
Out with muscle injury
Sanchez is out for Sunday's match against Manchester City due to a muscle injury, according to Nizaar Kinsella of the BBC.
Analysis: Sanchez is not in the call Sunday as the club gets ready to face Chelsea, with the goalie instead missing due to a small muscle injury. The good news is a return seems to be likely soon, already eyeing Wednesday's match against Fulham. He is replaced by Filip Jorgensen, who receives his first Premier League start of the season.
Four saves in draw
Sanchez registered four saves and allowed two goals in Tuesday's 2-2 draw against AFC Bournemouth.
Analysis: Sanchez had a decent performance with four saves and an aerial won, despite conceding two goals to the Cherries on Tuesday.

Keeps clean sheet in win
Sanchez made two saves and allowed zero goals in Saturday's 2-0 victory over Everton.
Analysis: Sanchez preserved the lead with an important first-half denial of Jack Grealish, blocking the effort after the winger's jinking run into the area. He could have been beaten late by Iliman Ndiaye's low shot, which struck the inside of the post as Everton pushed for a way back. Aside from those moments, he handled crosses cleanly and managed the tempo with calm distribution, securing an eighth clean sheet in 16 appearances in the Premier League this season. Sanchez will look to record another one against Newcastle on Saturday.
