Chelsea Secures Fifth Successive Victory Over Tottenham

The London derby started slowly, with the tempo possibly affected by the early concussion withdrawal of Spurs midfielder Lucas Bergvall.
Chelsea largely dictated the play, with their first notable chance coming in the 20th minute through Alejandro Garnacho's effort, which was deflected into the hands of Guglielmo Vicario.
A clearer warning came soon after, when
João Pedro pounced on a loose ball before curling a shot at Vicario, setting the tone for Chelsea's eventual victory.
