What’s Hot and What’s Not from the Boxing Day action in the Premier League

HOT – Pedro and Chelsea

Chelsea made it 12 Premier League wins in a row by beating Bournemouth 3-0 at Stamford Bridge and, in Diego Costa’s absence, it was Pedro who lit up West London.

The Spanish international netted the opener after good work from Cesc Fabregas, before his effort late on instigated the own goal from Cherries defender Steve Cook.

In what was another excellent all round display from Conte’s men, the suspensions of Costa and N’Golo Kante proved to be of little issue to the Blues, with the front three of Eden Hazard, Pedro, and Willian linking up well and causing several problems to the Bournemouth defence, while Fabregas seamlessly slotted in alongside Nemanja Matic.

Chelsea are going to take some stopping.
