Chelsea beat Everton 2-0 at the Stamford Bridge on Saturday to end their four-game winless streak.
Enzo Maresca’s side also moved back into the Premier League’s top four following the win.
Everton were in control of the game in the first half creating the better chances but it was the hosts that struck first through Cole Palmer on 21 minutes.
The England international sweet past Jordan Pickford after he was set by Malo Gusto.
Fresh from scoring a first-ever career goal in November, it was Gusto who then got the second from Pedro Neto’s cross before half-time.
Everton’s last win at Chelsea came in 1994 whilst manager David Moyes had never tasted victory at the Stamford Bridge.
