Tottenham boss Antonio Conte delivers bold Chelsea prediction after crucial win vs Leicester

Chelsea picked up their third consecutive win in all competitions on Saturday afternoon as they won 3-1 against Leicester City at the King Power Stadium. The Blues earned their first away win since the 2-0 victory against Aston Villa at Villa Park back in October last year.

Prior to the win against Leeds last weekend, Graham Potter was facing immense pressure to turn Chelsea's results around after having failed to win a game since the victory against Crystal Palace in January. After beating Javi Gravia's side at Stamford Bridge, the Blues went on to overturn a first-leg deficit against Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League and progress into the last eight thanks to goals from Raheem Sterling and Kai Havertz.

The trip to Leicester could have seen Chelsea slip up once again but goals from Ben Chilwell, Havertz and Mateo Kovacic saw them pick up another vital three points as they look to gain momentum heading into the final 12 Premier League fixtures of the season. The Blues still face tough tests against Liverpool and Manchester United - whilst potentially playing a key role in the Premier League title race - with games against Arsenal and Manchester City still to come too.
