Cesc Fabregas marked his 300th Premier League match with a goal and an assist as Chelsea defeated Swansea City 3-1 to extend their lead at the top of the table to 11 points.
Fabregas, the first Spanish player to reach the milestone in the Premier League, gathered Pedro’s pass and prodded home in the 19th minute.
Fernando Llorente levelled for Swansea on the stroke of half-time, heading in with the visitors’ first effort on target.
But a Pedro strike squirmed under Lukasz Fabianski and Eden Hazard teed up Diego Costa as Chelsea struck twice inside the final 20 minutes to secure a dominant home win.
The Blues will now wait to see how their rivals respond, while Swansea lie three points above the relegation zone.
