Chelsea going Strong: Still Unbeaten and 7 points clear off the EPL table

 Chelsea opened up a seven-point lead at the Premier League summit as goals from Diego Costa and Eden Hazard secured a one-sided win over 10-man West Brom.

Costa's chest down and volley got the ball rolling for Jose Mourinho's side.

Hazard was then gifted a cheap second after 25 minutes, firing home after West Brom switched off at a corner.

Claudio Yacob's two-footed lunge on Costa earned him a straight red card from Lee Mason, effectively ending the contest inside half an hour.

West Brom were spared further pain but it was nevertheless a chastening loss for the visitors, who were second best by a considerable margin in all areas.
