Chelsea has moved back into the top four by ending their three-match losing run with an emphatic 4-0 win over the English Premier League's bottom club Southampton at Stamford Bridge.

Christopher Nkunku opened the scoring for Chelsea in the 24th minute when he headed in Tosin Adarabioyo's flick-on following a corner.

Twelve minutes later, Nkunku set up Pedro Neto, who beat Saints keeper Aaron Ramsdale to score another goal.

Just before half-time Chelsea added a third as Levi Colwill rose highest to nod in Neto's wide free-kick.

In the 78th minute substitute Tyrique George set up Marc Cucurella who rounded off a fine counter-attack with a drilled finish.

Liverpool leads the table with 64 points, Arsenal is second with 53 points, Nottingham Forest is third with 47 points while Chelsea is fourth with 46 points.
