Chelsea 11 clear

-

Chelsea continue to look unstoppabl­e at the top of the Premier League table after beating Swansea 3-1 yesterday to extend their lead to 11 points. Goals from Cesc Fabregas, Pedro and Diego Costa gave the hosts victory, shrugging off a defiant Swansea side, who had gone into halftime level at 1-1. Fabregas, playing his 300th Premier League game, put Chelsea ahead, but Fernando Llorente headed an equaliser on the stroke of halftime. Pedro restored their lead with a shot Lukasz Fabianski should have saved.
