MANCHESTER, England (Reuters) - Runaway Premier League leaders Manchester City took a step closer to a fourth title in five seasons with a 1-0 win over second-placed Chelsea on Saturday, opening up a 13 point lead over the London club at the top.

Rafa Benitez's troubles at Everton continued as they suffered a 2-1 loss to Norwich City, who move off the bottom of the table with their third win of the campaign.

Third-placed Liverpool are 14 points behind City but have two games in hand, including Sunday's game at home to Brentford. After a first half which saw few clear chances, other than Jack Grealish being foiled by Chelsea keeper Kepa Arrizabalaga, Chelsea had an opportunity to take the lead after the break but Romelu Lukaku's shot was well saved by Ederson.

"He had many ball losses without any pressure, many ball losses in very promising circumstances," the German told reporters. Everton fans vented their fury at manager Rafa Benitez but were given something to cheer when Richarlison halved the deficit on the hour mark to set up a tense finale.
