FULL TIME: Chelsea hang on for a 1-0 win. It wasn't pretty, but it was enough. Juan Mata's touch of class the difference between the two sides.

BASSONG CLOSE! Header from close range, straight down into the ground and then over the top. Could have been the best chance of an equaliser.

Final change - Chelsea swap Mata for Ake, a 17-year-old youth product.

Crass challenge from Hazard - he clipped the heels of his man to prevent a run, and is rightly booked.

Torres does get on the end of Luiz's through ball at the second attempt. Three minutes of added time to play.

Final change for Norwich - Hoolahan off, Eliott Bennett on.

CHANCE! Hazard from close range on his left after a sharp move with Torres, but Bunn comes up quick to smother.
87'
Lampard tries to link with Mata - fails, but wins the ball back with some pressure deep in the Norwich half.
86'
Garrido sends a hopeful ball forward across to the right. Doesn't get the Canaries very far but Morison does at least manage to keep the ball in play.
85'
Torres appears from nowhere, running down the right - but nobody is there for his cutback. Quiet afternoon from the Spaniard.
84'
Azpilicueta cannot keep a crossfield ball in - he's cheered ironically by the home fans, but it was far from simple to stop that one.
83'
Long clearance forward from Cech - Chelsea have yet to kill this game off.

Another change for the Canaries - Johnson off, Howson on.

Whoops - that's embarrassing - Johnson goes down expecting a challenge from Luiz, and it doesn't come. That's a dive and a yellow card.
80'
10 minutes left at Carrow Road - both Manchester United and City still dropping points. This is rapidly turning into a huge game for Chelsea.

And a change for Chelsea too - it's Hazard on for Moses, who has looked pretty good today.

Time for a Norwich change - Morison for Pilkington.
77'
Norwich up and running after a slip by Oscar - Johnson's cross from deep just too far beyond Holt.
