While the home side are two goals to the good in this first half, it must be said it has been quite an even game which is where the scoreline flatters to deceive Mauricio Pochettino’s team.

As things stand, Chelsea are now just five points behind Manchester United and they have a game in hand on the Red Devils too, meaning there is a slight chance that the Blues could sneak a sixth place finish.
