Chelsea 3-0 Luton Town

at Stamford Bridge
THE gulf in class between these two clubs was clearly evident as Mauricio Pochettino’s expensively assembled Chelsea, continuing their transformation in the Todd Boehly era, won comfortably against league newcomers Luton Town at the weekend.
The vocal travelling supporters proudly roared on their team to the end. However, it’s clear that, even at this early stage in the season, it could be a long and difficult one for the Bedfordshire club.
