Chelsea stretched their lead at the top of the Premier League standings to four points over nearest rivals Manchester United, after dispatching of Bolton Wanderers 1-0. Nicolas Anelka’s first half goal was all that separated the two sides, the forward’s first strike in 14 matches.

“It was not an easy game, we knew this because Bolton came to Stamford Bridge to play their game. They played well and put some pressure on for 90 minutes with a lot of long balls,” manager Carlo Ancelotti explained on the club’s official website. “It was a tough game for us but Chelsea did a good job, we won, the most important thing, and had a lot of chances to score and improve our result.”

Chelsea next visit White Hart Lane to face Tottenham Hotspur at the weekend, just days after Harry Redknapp’s side battle with Arsenal.
