However, the Seagulls fought back well in the second half with Solly March scoring just his second-ever Premier League goal – but that turned out to be a mere consolation in the end.The Blues took the lead in the 18th minute through Pedro following good work from Hazard to find the Spaniard who tapped in from close range.And they soon doubled their advantage at the Amex through a wonderful solo effort by the Belgian on 33 minutes.Willian played Hazard in before he weaved his way past the Brighton defence and slotted home for his eighth Premier League goal of the season.Solly March’s second-half goal had given Brighton hope of salvaging a point3

The second half proved to be sterner test for Sarri’s men, as Brighton came back into the game strongly.Chris Hughton’s men gave themselves hope of salvaging something from the game with 24 minutes remaining.Bernardo rose highest at the far post to head the ball back into the danger area, andMarch reacted quickest to hooks the ball past Kepa and into the back of the net, for the Seagulls’ first-ever Premier League goal against the Blues. That was as good as it got for the hosts though, as Chelsea held on for a vital three points.Brighton, who stay 13th in the league, are still looking for their first win over the Blues in any competition since January 1933.

Star man

Hazard’s skill and movement to set up Chelsea’s opener underlined why he is regarded as one of the best players in the top flight. Without him the Blues looked lost and lacked any kind of urgency in the closing stages.

Moment of the match

The build-up to Chelsea’s first goal, when Hazard twisted and turned smartly to carve out a tap-in for Pedro. Classy, as ever, from the Belgian.

De Jong looked fantastic up against Luka Modric.

And no mind-games, insults or bad feeling - just mutual respect and appreciation. Has Liverpool v Manchester City emerged as the Clasico of the Premier League? Jurgen Klopp's team aren't contenders to win the Premier League but they showed the rest of the league that when it comes to playing City, who dares might just win.
