Chelsea returned to winning ways as they scored early to ensure a 2-0 home triumph over Bournemouth at Stamford Bridge 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.

Reece James returned to the Chelsea team after recovering from a knee injury in October which ruled him out of the World Cup but he was subbed off before the hour mark with another injury.

The Blues did end a run of five league matches without a victory though and moved up one place in the league standings to eighth. Bournemouth have now lost four of their past five Premier League matches and remain in 14th.
