Comments:

League position: 7th This was Everton's second home defeat in this Premier League season (played 18, won 12). The Toffees failed to score for the first time in their last nine home games in the Premier League. Ex-Chelsea forward Romelu Lukaku failed to score for the first time in his last ten games at Goodison Park. He had now failed to score in all six appearances against his former club in the Premier League. Everton manager Ronald Koeman said: "It is really tough to beat Chelsea. They showed their belief and their quality. They will be champions. We need to find the motivation to finish the season strongly."

Comments:

League position: 1st Chelsea kept their first clean sheet in their last 12 games in the Premier League; their worst such run since a 13-game sequence in 1996. The Blues had now failed to score in one of their last 14 games in the Premier League. Gary Cahill's goal was his eighth of the season so becoming the best goalscoring season of his career. Chelsea manager Antonio Conte said: "I must be relaxed when we win but I think it is very important to celebrate this win with the players and fans. I think we must continue this way, to play game by game and take three points in every game. We know every win in this part of the season is very important."
