Chelsea 0-0 Everton: Maurizio Sarri's side miss chance to return to top of Premier League table

Maurizio Sarri set a new Premier League record as Chelsea stretched their unbeaten run but there was little else to celebrate as his team dropped points against Everton.

Sarri, who has not lost in a dozen games and eclipsed Frank Clark’s start to his career at Nottingham Forest in 1994, watched his side dominate the second half without finding a way past Jordan Pickford.

England goalkeeper Pickford made a series of fine saves to deny Marcos Alonso, Alvaro Morata and Eden Hazard.
