Chelsea returned to winning ways with a comfortable 3-1 victory over Huddersfield at the John Smith’s Stadium on Tuesday.
Chelsea dominated the first half, and went into the break 2-0 up after Tiemoue Bakayoko’s neat finish (23) and Willian’s back-post header (43).
Pedro made it 3-0 with an effort from 15 yards (50) after the break, and Huddersfield got a consolation in injury time through sub Laurent Depoitre’s superb header past Thibaut Courtois (90+2).
The result means Chelsea are 11 points behind leaders Man City, who play at Swansea on Wednesday evening. Huddersfield are 12th, five clear of the drop zone.
