Antonio Conte was sent to the stands for the second half as Chelsea claimed its fifth Premier League win in six games with a 1-0 defeat of Swansea on Wednesday.

The Chelsea coach was dismissed from the touchline by referee Neil Swarbrick moments before the interval after furiously protesting the award of a Swansea goal kick.

The Italian at first sat behind the dugout, but then had to move due to the proximity of his new seat to his coaching staff.

On the field, Antonio Rudiger's 55th-minute header proved decisive. It was Rudiger's first Premier League goal.

Elsewhere, Burnley beat Bournemouth, Everton thrashed West Ham and Manchester City left it late against Southampton.

Just over five minutes to go until kick-off at the bet365 Stadium. Can Liverpool get the win they need to move above Tottenham and into fifth place in the league?

1' - We are underway in Stoke!

7' - It's been a really slow start here. Both sides still feeling each other out.

10' - Peter Crouch shows some really fast feet in the middle of the park to beat a couple of Liverpool players before looking for ball Mame Biram Diouf on the right wing. The Stoke striker's pass is sloppy though and the ball straight out of play for a Liverpool throw-in.

GOAL! Stoke 0-1 Liverpool (Mane)

18' - Liverpool open the scoring through Sadio Mane! The Senegalese receives the ball from Dominic Solanke in the penalty area before cutely dinking the ball over Lee Grant in the Stoke goal.

Stoke's players feel aggrieved as they believe the ball went out of play in the build-up to the goal but replays suggest the officials made the right decision.

25' - Xherdan Shaqiri gives the ball away in a dangerous position midway inside the Stoke half and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain leads a Liverpool counter-attack. The England midfielder finds Roberto Firmino on the edge of the penalty area but Ryan Shawcross does well to dispossess the Brazilian and turn the ball behind for a corner, which comes to nothing.
