Chelsea moved back to winning ways with a powerful 5-1 triumph over Bournemouth in their Premier League clash at Stamford Bridge.
Manager Xabi Alonso included Moises Caicedo in the starting line-up for the first time since he sustained an injury, and the midfielder formed a double pivot with Jordan Henderson. The visitors immediately had the upper hand in midfield and took control of the game from the outset. 
They scored two quick goals inside the first ten minutes, with Henderson and Morgan Rogers finding the net and sending the home fans into a frenzy.
After the interval, Chelsea continued to dominate proceedings, with João Pedro adding two more goals to their tally. Henderson later scored a brilliant free-kick to complete his brace and Chelsea’s fifth goal of the game.
Despite Bournemouth’s best efforts, they could only manage a solitary goal in the entire game as Chelsea came away with a stunning victory on their home soil.
The win is a much-needed result for Alonso’s men after their 3-0 defeat to Brentford in their previous Premier League game. The result has also propelled the West Londoners up the table to fifth position with ten points.
Chelsea will now prepare for their next Premier League encounter, which will take place in the north of England against Everton.
