Chelsea 3-0 Aston Villa: Cole Palmer scores again as Blues cruise past struggling visitors to move third - with Nicolas Jackson and Enzo Fernandez also on target

Chelsea cruised to a 3-0 victory against Aston Villa to move third in the Premier League.

Nicolas Jackson opened the scoring after touching home Marc Cucurella's cross and Enzo Fernandez doubled the Blues' lead with a fine strike before half-time.

Cole Palmer then got back among the goals with a superb, curling effort which left Villa's substitute goalkeeper Robin Olsen rooted to the spot.

The three points have moved Enzo Maresca's side level on points with Arsenal.
