Chelsea cement top spot
A 3-1 win over Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium gave Chelsea their eighth league successive Premier League win and cemented their place at the top of the table
After an own goal on the stroke of half-time but Diego Costa pulled the blues level before Willian and Eden Hazard completed the scoring.
When Chelsea lost to Arsenal back in September they were 8 points behind the then leaders Manchester City so the renaissance has been an impressive one.
It’s the first time Chelsea have won eight consecutive Premier League games since the 2006-07 season, they face West Brom at home on 11th December hoping to make it nine.
