Players have been pulled up for a foul on the Belgian 16 times in his six league appearances in 2015-16, an average of 2.7 per game.

Only four other players in the league have been subject to more fouling than Chelsea's Hazard has this season.

Aston Villa's Idrissa Gueye also has also been fouled at a ratio of three per game, 12 times in total, while Alexis Sanchez has suffered 17 so far this season (2.8 per game).

Hazard is no stranger to Premier League fouls having topped the list of the division's most fouled players for each of the last two seasons.

In 2014-15 he was the subject of 113 fouls, three pre game on average, and he suffered 89 fouls against him in the 2013-14 season, 2.5 per game on average.

These figures are for fouls awarded by a referee and do not include fouls that have not been given.
