A 11-point Premier League lead makes collecting that trophy a near-certainty but there is also a first Champions League semifinal with City for Guardiola against Paris Saint-Germain in what remains the priority title for the club.

While Guardiola has been in charge almost five years at City, Thomas Tuchel has only been at Chelsea three months.

The performance against City will offer Tuchel encouragement of silverware. While Timo Werner struggles for goals, assists are less of a problem — with his 12th of his first season at Chelsea setting up Ziyech for the close-range finish in the 55th minute.

There were no Chelsea fans to witness the goal in person. But they should be allowed back into Wembley for the May 15 final as coronavirus restrictions are eased.
