A bumper midweek Premier League schedule came to a head on Wednesday night as Chelsea beat Tottenham 2-0 at Stamford Bridge.
Maurizio Sarri's position as Chelsea head coach was strengthened by a Willy Caballero clean sheet and a Tottenham defensive howler.
Kepa, the world's most expensive goalkeeper was replaced by Caballero as Pedro's 57th-minute strike was followed by an embarrassing Kieran Trippier own goal.
Elsewhere, Liverpool beat Watford 5-0 to stay top of the table, while Man City kept pace with a 1-0 home win versus West Ham.
Manchester United won 3-1 at Crystal Palace, Arsenal beat Bournemouth 5-1 to stay fourth, and Fulham fell to a 2-0 defeat at Southampton.
