Chelsea are stunned at home with Matej Vydra netting a late equaliser to cancel out Kai Havertz's header as Thomas Tuchel's Premier League leaders are punished for their wasteful finishing

Sean Dyche’s inspired substitutions enabled Burnley to take an unlikely point at Stamford Bridge and stop Chelsea’s winning run.

The Premier League leaders appeared to be heading for a routine victory when Kai Havertz, deputising at centre-forward for the injured Romelu Lukaku, headed in after 33 minutes shortly after he’d needed treatment for tumbling over an advertising hoarding.

But their chances of a fifth consecutive league win were ended when Dyche sent on Jay Rodriguez and Matej Vydra midway through the second half – and the pair combined for Vydra to nab an equaliser after 79 minutes.
