Chelsea started very brightly against Leicester today, but missed a couple of chances to take the lead.

After what happened against Burnley before the international break, fans could be forgiven for feeling nervy.

But Antonio Rudiger has just stepped up to head his team in front from a corner, and now we can hopefully add the second and third goals we lacked against the Clarets.

It was a lovely run from the keeper’s blindside, and our set piece domination goes on. This is still a dangerous team, but the game should play into our hands now.
