LONDON (Reuters) - Chelsea returned to winning ways as they scored early to ensure a 2-0 home triumph over Bournemouth at Stamford Bridge on Tuesday in their first Premier League victory since mid-October.
Kai Havertz and Mason Mount both netted in the first half of a dominant performance but the home side will feel they could have won by a bigger margin given the possession they enjoyed and chances they created.
Chelsea ended a run of five league matches without a victory and moved up one place in the league standings to eighth. Bournemouth have now lost four of their past five league games and remain in 14th place on 16 points.
