Chelsea collected a 3-1 victory against Swansea City in the Premier League on Saturday, although the visitors put up a fight at Stamford Bridge.

Cesc Fabregas opened the scoring for Chelsea after 19 minutes, but the hosts were surprised as Fernando Llorente powerfully headed home for the Swans on the stroke of half-time.

Pedro restored order in the closing stages of the match, grabbing the Blues' second of the game when it appeared Swansea might take a share of the points.

Diego Costa wrapped up the result in the final moments despite credible resistance from the South Wales side.
