Clinical Chelsea continued their recent revival under Graham Potter - as Gary Lineker watched them breeze past Leicester.

Ben Chilwell grabbed the opener against his former club to set the tone for a 3-1 win and further ease the pressure on Potter.

Kai Havertz’s fine finish restored the visitors’ lead after Patson Daka levelled and Mateo Kovacic’s volley sealed it.

Chelsea forward Joao Felix hit the post and had a goal ruled out by VAR while Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall missed a sitter for the hosts before Wout Faes was sent off late on.

A third straight victory, after reaching the Champions League quarter-finals having knocked out Borussia Dortmund on Wednesday, should represent the start of the recovery under Potter.

OFF THE LINE! Leicester finally fashion an opportunity in this second half from a tempting cross. Kepa comes to claim the ball but misses it and is off his line. Leicester fire an effort on goal but Mudryk is on the line to clear the ball away.

Chelsea win it back quickly and Gallagher feeds Havertz but the German is off-balance and fires high and wide.

Gallagher cuts back on the right to create space for the cross but it is overhit and sails out for another goal kick.
