First-half.
Kick-off Bolton.
45 seconds Miss Chelsea survive an early set-piece but only just. Cohen is able to meet a free-kick but heads over.
9 Attack Strong play by Ivanovic sees him dispossess Lee and cross toward Anelka but Bolton clear behind hurriedly.
12 Miss Anelka finds Drogba on the penalty spot with a cross but the Ivorian gets his angles wrong and heads wide.
13 Shot Anelka with the first shot on target after Drogba plays it in, has it saved by a sharp Jaaskelainen.
14 Save Now the Bolton keeper tips over a header from Drogba from the corner.
19 Save Drogba pounces as the highly-rated Cahill stumbles along but the Chelsea striker's close-range shot is well saved.
22 Save Bolton's first shot on-target after their best attack is a curler from Cohen, caught by Cech.
28 Close Ferreira's bending right-foot cross is missed by Drogba but almost creeps inside the far post, Jaaskelainen stretching to tip it wide.
29 Offside Ivanovic's blistering volley crashes into the net. Ballack and Ivanovic had been offside and in front the keeper as the home defence struggled to clear the ball the Chelsea defender's way.
31 Escape Davies shoots wastefully wide after Elmander flicks a high ball on.
41 Escape Elmander has his chance after a ball slips under the foot of Terry but the striker fires over.

Kick-off Chelsea.
46 Chances Chelsea attack straight after the break, Drogba firing at Jaaskelainen and Deco stabbing wide after a good move.
51 Challenge Essien with an important intervention as Cohen delayed in controlling a dropping ball just a couple of yards from the Chelsea goal:
53 Blocks Jaaskelainen denies Drogba at close range after the Chelsea man chests down a ball and shoots. Then the Bolton defence retreats in time to stop Drogba's goalbound effort.
55 Booked Robinson for sliding in on Ivanovic.
56 Woodwork Lampard's piledriver crashes off the bar after a corner is played to the edge of the area.
60 CHELSEA GOAL Stunning counter attack by Chelsea as a Bolton corner is turned into a Deco goal via Carvalho and Anelka, the scorer calmly side-stepping Robinson before finishing with a left-foot shot.
64 Bolton substitution M Davies for Muamba.
79 Booked Ferreira for a late challenge on Ricketts.
81 CHELSEA GOAL Ivanovic heads in from close range under pressure from Zat Knight as Carvalho crosses with the outside of his boot.

Comment Terry moves equal with Steve Clarke on 421 appearances, the sixth highest total in the club's history. Ferreira retains the left-back slot and in the choice between Deco and Joe Cole at the front of the diamond, the Portuguese international is preferred. Bolton were not without a threat but the Blues on the whole defend well, including set-pieces. Jaaskelainen in the Bolton goal excels but a spell of extreme pressure early in the second-half eventually yields the second goal and the contest is all but over. Lampard's goal is his fourth in three games, Deco and Drogba, their second of the week against Bolton. This is Chelsea away as we have come to expect it in recent years. A seventh straight win at the Reebok without a goal conceded in that run.
