Chelsea cemented their status as the overwhelming favourites for the Premier League title with an impressive 3-1 victory over Arsenal at Stamford Bridge on Saturday.

Marcos Alonso gave the Blues the lead after just 12 minutes before a sensational Eden Hazard strike and a delicate Cesc Fabregas finish in the second half added gloss to a muscle-flexing performance from Antonio Conte’s men.

Olivier Giroud did pull a goal back for Arsenal in the dying embers of the match, but it was too little, too late for the hapless Gunners.
