    Chelsea 2-0 Everton

    Since Antonio Conte switched to the 3-4-3 formation four games ago, Chelsea have scored 13 goals, conceding none.

    The Italian has found a system that works and, on this showing, Chelsea look real contenders for the title.

    Everton have switched to a flat back four, but still Chelsea come forward.

    Everton are desperate to get back into this, but they have shown nothing going forward to suggest they can get back into this.

  4. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 36 mins

    Chelsea 2-0 Everton

    Diego Costa cushions a header wide, sending the ball out of play for the first time in quite a while and that allows Everton to finally make a change.

    It's a tactical one as Kevin Mirallas replaces Bryan Oviedo.

    Everton are going to have to batten down the hatches here.

    It's pass, pass, pass by Chelsea at the moment, Everton cannot get near the ball and the latest move ends with Victor Moses charging in at the far post to meet a Marcos Alonso cross and his volley rattles the post.

    Diego Costa plays a no-look pass to almost put Marcos Alonso in.

    Chelsea are wonderful to watch at the moment.

    Phil Jagielka gets a yellow card after protesting a challenge by David Luiz. You can understand his frustration, he was bundled over as the Chelsea defender shepherded the ball out of play.

    Chelsea 2-0 Everton

    Everton boss Ronald Koeman is sticking with his 5-3-2 formation. When does he change it? They haven't had a shot on or off target yet.

    No surprises that it is the two players on Chelsea's left that have bagged today. Everything the Blues have done has come from that side of the pitch.

    Everton need to do something now. Their cautious approach has not worked and so they attack, Romelu Lukaku chesting Seamus Coleman's cross into Thibaut Courtois' hands.

    Marcos Alonso

    Well then!

    Fireworks before the game, fireworks on the pitch as Chelsea explode into life.

    It's a brilliant move, with Eden Hazard involved again. He wins possession midway inside the Everton half, cuts open the defence with a precise pass for Diego Costa, who squares the ball for Marcos Alonso to drive home.

    Eden Hazard

    Rule number one of defending against Eden Hazard - don't let him cut inside.

    Everton do just that as Hazard runs on to Diego Costa's ball down the left before jinking back towards the edge of the area and then curling a neat finish into the far corner.

    Pedro takes the free kick but not very well. He over hits it and Everton sweep up.

    Some may think referee Robert Madley should have reached into his pocket earlier, but he does so now to book Yannick Bolasie for a late challenge on Victor Moses midway inside the Everton half.

    Chelsea are dominating possession but Maarten Stekelenburg hasn't had a real save to make yet. 

    It might not make for a decent spectacle, but Everton are doing a solid job of keeping their in-form hosts quiet.
