The Blues took control early in the encounter when Enzo Fernández opened the scoring in the 18th minute with a curling strike from outside the box, setting the tone for a dominant first-half display.

Chelsea doubled their advantage midway through the second half through Andrey Santos, who finished clinically to put the home side in a strong position.

Tottenham Hotspur responded in the 74th minute when Richarlison converted from close range following a clever backheel from Pape Matar Sarr, reigniting hopes of a comeback.

Despite sustained pressure in the closing stages, Tottenham were unable to find an equaliser as Chelsea held firm to secure all three points in a tense finish.

The result leaves Tottenham in a precarious position, with their Premier League status now under threat ahead of their final fixture against Everton on Sunday.

West Ham United, currently in 18th place, remain two points behind Spurs and still have a chance to survive if results go their way in the final round of matches.
