The Carabao Cup finalists looked a tough proposition on paper for the Blues in what was a must-win game in the battle for Champions League places.
It turned out to be anything but a close affair, with the Blues turning in one of our best performances of the season.

And a welcome clean sheet was never in any doubt as the Blues saw out the second-half without too much concern, adding a late fourth from James McAtee to complete our biggest Premier League home win of the season.
