Week 23 EPL review: Chelsea move nine points clear; Arsenal lose at home

Week 23 of the English Premier League sees Chelsea extend their lead at the top to nine points after Liverpool, Arsenal, and Spurs all drop points.

Chelsea moves nine points clear at the head of the Premier League despite only managing a draw in a class tie at Anfield.

With Liverpool going out of both cup competitions last week, they had to win this game if they were to maintain a glimmer of hope in the Premier League title race. A Chelsea victory would move them 13-points clear.

It was the best attack in the country versus the best defence, and it was the latter who opened the scoring first thanks to a moment of brilliance by David Luiz. Adam Lallana brought Eden Hazard tumbling to the floor outside the box, and as Simon Mignolet was still organising his defensive shield, Luiz came from nowhere to fire a bullet into the back of the net to give Chelsea the lead.
