Watford Vs Chelsea Ends 1-2 - All The Action! by FTScores: 6:00pm On Aug 20, 2016
Walter Mazarri's Watford almost upset Chelsea after taking the lead through Capoue mid-way through the game. But a late come back from The Blues saw Antonio Conte and his team leaving the Vicarage Road Stadium with all three points.

Chelsea lined-up with a 4-2-3-1 formation while Watford concentrated their men at the midfield with a 3-5-2 formation.

After a quite first half with few chances, Capoue finally broke the deadlock after getting on the end of Adlene Guedioura's cross. Composed, the Frenchman controlled the ball and fired a vicious left -footed volley straight into Chelsea's goal - leaving goal keeper Courtois nothing but dazed.

1-0, Watford had the lead 55 minutes into the game.

Trailing behind, Chelsea had to quickly come up with something ... and they did through Batshuayi who scored a rebound off Eden Hazard's initial shot 20 minutes from time.

1-1, the team went celebrating, but Chelsea's coach, Antonio Conte urged his men to get on with play quickly and try to find another goal.
It came just seven minutes later.

Cesc Fabregas made a long pass to Diego Costa who was ahead with two defenders right behind him. Costa reached Watford's penalty area and quickly aligned himself to take the shot which went past goal keeper, Gomes to hand Chelsea the winner!

2-1 it ended in favor of Chelsea.

In other games played today, Manchester City defeated Stoke City 4-1 - thanks to two goals each from Sergio Aguero and Nolito. Liverpool lost away to Burnley 0-2, while Hull City continued their impressive premier league campaign with a 2-0 win over Swansea City.

Tottenham Hotspur defeated Crystal palace 1-0 while West Bromwich Albion lost to Everton in a game that ended 2-1.
