Chelsea moved back into the top four of the Premier League table with a narrow 1-0 win against Leicester City at Stamford Bridge.
Marc Cucurella's second-half strike was enough for the Blues to leapfrog Manchester City.
Enzo Maresca won't want to dwell too long on the performance, with the Blues proving unconvincing for long periods.
Cole Palmer's goalless run stretched to nine matches after he had a penalty saved by Leicester goalkeeper Mads Hermansen midway through the first half.
