And hello from Jim Pravele and Matt Holland in West London
for Chelsea against Bournemouth in week 17 of the Premier League season.
It's nearly 30 years since Chelsea lost four successive matches,
but that's a mark they could reach today
against opposition who proved to be troublesome adversaries in the past.
Phil Billing more than capable of troubling goalkeepers,
but you're going to have to save a word for that.
Silva still looking uncomfortable, but still pushing his body through it.
Here's Jorginho, out for Sterling...
Havertz!
What help he needed there!
I said about Mason Mount, trying to get in that position,
in behind the midfield, and he does it superbly.
On the half-turn, looking to play forward.
He's got a runner in Raheem Sterling,
who's got the ability to pick out Havertz at the far post.
It's a terrific goal from Chelsea, well worked against a deep defensive unit.
It's brilliant.
Havertz applies the finishing touch.
A super goal for Graham Potter's men.
And it might get better yet.
Sterling just in behind Mount,
who did really well to make something of it.
Zakaria couldn't get a shot in.
Chelsea double their advantage.
Oh, they needed that break.
Potter has a big beaming smile on his face for the first time in a couple of months.
From Mason Mount, who's been at the heart of a lot of Chelsea's good play.
Initially, he felt that Zakaria could have got a shot away.
He didn't, but it falls kindly to Mason Mount on the edge of the box.
And he makes no mistake.
First time, bending it around the defender and into the corner.
Past Mark Travers, who can't get there.
Inch perfect from Mason Mount.
In from Pulisic.
Travelled a long way, that's a good ball from Mount.
Still reached, James has it.
Travers protecting the near post area.
Pulisic trying to improvise.
Harwich was grateful to end up with the ball in his hands.
More and more space.
Because Dominic Solanke is effectively playing out on that left-hand side,
but wants to play up front.
He's neglecting his duty of trying to track Rhys James.
And he's on all the time.
Sure enough, he gets in again.
It'll be interesting to see what he does do at half-time.
I think a winger is essential.
And it's Sterling, good save.
Chelsea, decently hit from Sterling.
So Bournemouth making a change ahead of the second half,
with Jadon Anthony replacing Jack Stacey.
And we're back underway.
And Chelsea immediately back in possession.
Zakaria getting caught.
Sanessi stepped up.
Lerma, here's a chance.
Christie taking it on.
The angle was tight.
And Aretha Balaga makes a decent, important save.
It's the first real save that he's had to make as well.
The first important one, anyway.
Some moments of high class to follow the hiatus.
Bournemouth feature heavily amongst the Chelsea ghosts of Christmas past.
