Chelsea ended their negative run after defeating Tottenham 2-1 in their 37th Premier League match at Stamford Bridge Stadium, London, early Wednesday morning.
Chelsea had previously gone seven Premier League games without a win, with six defeats and one draw, according to Premier League records.
Chelsea won thanks to goals from Enzo Fernandez and Andrey Santos, while Tottenham reduced the deficit through Richarlison.
This victory moved Chelsea up to eighth in the standings with 52 points from 37 matches, one point behind the Europa League zone.
On the other hand, the defeat left Tottenham stuck in 17th place with 38 points from 37 matches, still not safe from the threat of relegation.
Tottenham are required to win in the final week of the Premier League to avoid relegation, without having to worry about West Ham United's results.
