Chelsea have found the back of the net just three minutes into the match.
It was a fantastic curing in-direct free kick from Willian and Antonio Ruidger just couldn’t miss.
Stoke have plenty of injury concerns at the back so the Blues are all ready the right track for a vital three points.
The Stamford Bridge faithful have seen plenty of headed goals from the team this season.
Here is Rudiger’s bullet header that has put Antonio Conte’s side ahead early on:
After Moses was brought down on the wing, Willian steps up and swings in an excellent ball which Rüdiger rises highest to meet and head home. A bit easy, that. 1-0. #CFC pic.twitter.com/G82SSUw85q
