League position: 4th . Chelsea's opening goal was timed at 43 seconds at start of the second half. They had now scored three goals in the opening minute of a half so far in this Premier League season. . The Blues had now kept a clean sheet for the first time in their last 23 league games. The club record remained as a run of 31 games without a clean sheet in League Division One in August 1961. . In their seventh game, this was their first game in this Premier League season played outside of London.
