Alvaro Morata is almost in on goal but tries to cut in and loses the ball to a Stoke defender. That could have been 4-0 if he'd played his cards right.

This is one of those games where you suspect both managers would shake hands on the current score and just end the game now if they could.

Chelsea brought Pedro, Willian and Danny Drinkwater into the their team today. All of the three goals have been scored or set up by those three (although Pedro's cross to Drinkwater was deflected so doesn't count as an official assist).

Willian - who has assisted two - shoots straight at Jack Butland now.

Willian's free-kick is punched away by Jack Butland. Attack v defence.

Ooof. Alvaro Morata whizzes past Mame Biram Diouf, who just chops him down. Textbook yellow card.

A few Stoke fans seem to be heading out of the stands... Pint? Or early departure?

Stoke haven't had a touch in Chelsea's penalty area yet.

Alvaro Morata goes down after being caught by Kevin Wimmer. A worrying moment for Chelsea fans - and BBC Sport live text commentators who have him as their fantasy football captain this week.

But he bounces straight back up a couple of seconds later.

Chelsea have flown under the radar a little bit this season, even though they're champions, just because of what other teams have done. But they've been in great form, and they're a shoe in to finish second for me.

Stoke are struggling massively in this game, it's difficult for two young full-backs, and Geoff Cameron is playing out of position - it's a big ask for Stoke's backline. Chelsea are just peppering their goal at the moment, and there's no way out for Stoke.

Pedro to Alvaro Morata, back to Pedro but his curling shot is straight at Jack Butland.

Another brief foray forward for Stoke results in a woeful Mame Biram Diouf cross, who goes well over the bar.

Willian has a free-kick 35 yards out. Everyone is expecting a cross into the box, but he goes for goal. Luckily for Stoke, it goes over the bar.

Think Ronaldinho v England, but a bit nearer in and not a goal. So not really like Ronaldinho then.

Stoke have another attack, but Charlie Adam crosses right into the hands of Thibaut Courtois, who starts a quick counter. Alvaro Morata is in for Chelsea, but his shot is saved by Jack Butland and goes out for a corner.

From the corner, Danny Drinkwater fires a shot well over from a similar range to his goal.

Stoke enter Chelsea's half for the first time in ages but Mame Biram Diouf overruns it and Chelsea have it back.

Excellent goal. He's got that in his locker, Danny Drinkwater, anything around the box he'll be a threat and we've seen it again. He's controlled the spinning ball really nicely, and smashed it home.

Nii: Have a drink, Danny. What a goal

Deldude: Oh, oh what a goal. Danny Drinkwater, what a way to open your scoring account for Chelsea. A goal of the season contender!

Alvaro Morata has just fizzed one over the crossbar now. This could end up as a thrashing.

Willian has been directly involved in four goals in his last four Premier League games against Stoke (three goals, one assist).
