Cast your mind back to the 2014/15 season – and remember how deadly Chelsea were en route to another title win. All of that dominance? It came through Cesc Fabregas.

The Spaniard formed an unstoppable connection with Diego Costa, and the pair linked up for goals on a seemingly weekly basis.

That year was Costa’s most efficient in a Chelsea shirt, and it was also the year in which Fabregas had the most game time. Coincidence? No – when Fabregas plays, Costa usually scores, and when Costa scores – Chelsea usually win.

He must play against Leicester, and you can bet he will play a role when Chelsea score.
