Sixth straight win Abraham, Pulisic on Chelsea topped 2nd in Premier League Table.

Frank Lampard's side has recorded a sixth straight Premier League win for the first time since they won the Premier League title in 2016-17 as they moved up to second in the PL table.

After dominating a goalless opening half, Chelsea finally made the breakthrough when Mateo Kovacic and Willian combined to release Abraham - with the forward stroking a right-foot effort into the bottom right corner from 10 yards.

But Chelsea more than merited their win, with Pulisic wrapping up the points with a close-range header after Michy Batshuayi's deflected shot fell into his path.
