Chelsea next five fixtures compared to rivals in Champions League chase after Everton win

Chelsea moved back into the top five after earning a hard-fought 1-0 win over Everton on Saturday afternoon.

Nicolas Jackson put Enzo Maresca's side ahead around the half-hour mark with a fantastic finish from the edge of the box. It was his first goal in 14 games and ended a run of almost 900 minutes without a goal in all competitions

The Blues controlled much of the second half and forced Toffees goalkeeper Jordan Pickford into several good saves, but Maresca's men were unable to add to their tally. The result at Stamford Bridge sees Chelsea sit in fourth with just four league games left to play.
