EPL Table: 2017-18 Premier League standings in gameweek 2
Marcos Alonso's double was enough to hand Chelsea a key 2-1 Premier League victory over London rivals Tottenham at Wembley on Sunday.
Mauricio Pochettino's Spurs looked to have claimed a point after substitute Michy Batshuayi headed into his own net to cancel out Alonso's first-half free-kick, but Alonso beat Hugo Lloris all too easily with three minutes on the clock to get Antonio Conte's season up and running.
The victory sends Chelsea 12th in the table after an opening-day defeat to Burnley, while Tottenham sit ninth - three points off league leaders Manchester United.
United remain top after beating Swansea City 4-0 in Saturday's early kick-off.

Paul Pogba starred with two assists and a goal as Romelu Lukaku, Eric Bailly and Anthony Martial helped Jose Mourinho's Red Devils win by four goals for the second time running.
Arsenal boasted 77 per cent possession and mustered 18 attempts on goal but still lost 1-0 at Stoke.
Paris Saint-Germain loan signing Jese Rodriguez claimed the winner with a clinical finish after Saido Berahino's through ball.
Sadio Mane cut through home frustrations at Anfield to fire Liverpool to a patchy 1-0 win over Crystal Palace, as Jurgen Klopp's men secured their first victory of the campaign.
Palace remain winless and pointless from their opening two clashes under new boss Frank de Boer.
Charlie Austin's stoppage-time penalty sealed Southampton's 3-2 win over 10-man West Ham at St Mary's.
Saints raced into a two-goal lead, ending their home drought at 556 minutes, as Manolo Gabbiadini and Dusan Tadic found the net.
Marko Arnautovic was red carded for an elbow on Jack Stephens, while former Saints defender Jose Fonte conceded the penalty that allowed Tadic to put the hosts 2-0 to the good.
Italy striker Gabbiadini ended his own nine-match barren run, with the Saints seemingly coasting after two goals and with West Ham reduced to 10 men.
Javier Hernandez poached two goals to level the scores however, and Saints appeared to be heading for a frustrating draw.
But Pablo Zabaleta fouled Maya Yoshida at the death, and Austin dispatched Saints' second spot-kick of the match, to seal the spoils.
Shinji Okazaki and Harry Maguire found the net for Leicester's 2-0 home win over promoted Brighton, whose wait to get off the Premier League mark continues.
Hal Robson-Kanu claimed the winning goal but was later sent off as 10-man West Brom edged home 1-0 at Burnley.
Brazilian striker Richarlison struck his first Premier League goal as Watford ground past Bournemouth 2-0 at Dean Court.
The summer signing from Fluminense converted Andre Gray's cross for Watford's first goal, before Etienne Capoue sealed the Hornets' win with a late 25-yard strike.
