Chelsea easily coped without top-scorer Diego Costa, sweeping aside fading champion Leicester 3-0 to go seven points clear in the English Premier League on Saturday. "It was a very professional, solid performance by us on the back of the Spurs game," Chelsea defender Gary Cahill said. There was little reaction from Leicester as Chelsea threatened a procession. The rotation of Chelsea's front three Hazard, Willian and Pedro, caused Leicester issues. But Pedro wrapped up the points in the 71st as Chelsea underlined their superiority and the gulf between the two sides.
