Watch match highlights of Chelsea 4-3 Watford

Chelsea celebrated their Premier League title success with a 4-3 victory against Watford at Stamford Bridge.

John Terry scored for a 17th successive Premier League season as the champions snatched a dramatic late victory courtesy of Cesc Fabregas' strike.

Typically in the final days of Terry's storied Chelsea career, the captain was the night's main protagonist as Watford suffered a fifth straight loss and the Blues won for a 14th time in 15 home games and celebrated amid blue and silver streamers.

Win against Sunderland on Sunday, when the Premier League trophy will be presented, and Chelsea will become the first club to record 30 victories in a 38-game season.

Terry was named to start in the league for the first time since September 11 against Swansea and began a first game since the February 18 FA Cup win at Wolves. There was an element of good fortune about his goal as the ball dropped kindly for Terry in the area, he struck it with his shin and it went in off the post.

Two minutes later Terry gifted Watford a rare away goal scored by Etienne Capoue, but Cesar Azpilicueta's crisp drive restored the Blues' lead.

Michy Batshuayi, who scored the title-clinching goal at West Brom, put Chelsea's 3-1 up, but Daryl Janmaat pulled a goal back with a superb strike. And substitute Stefano Okaka equalised after holding off Terry before Fabregas' decisive 88th-minute strike.

Sebastian Prodl was sent off for a second bookable offence in the second minute of stoppage time as Watford finished the contest with 10 men in a bad-tempered conclusion.

Win against Sunderland on Sunday, when the Premier League trophy will be presented, and Chelsea will become the first club to record 30 victories in a 38-game season.
