Chelsea won 3-1 against Leicester City at the King Power Stadium on Saturday afternoon, their third consecutive win in all competitions. The Blues won their first away game since a 2-0 victory over Aston Villa at Villa Park in October of last year.
Ben Chilwell put the Blues ahead against his former club after latching onto a cross at the far post and volleying past goalkeeper Danny Ward. Patson Daka then equalized with a driven shot from the edge of the box for the hosts.
