Cesc Fabregas' 88th-minute strike dealt a significant blow to Queens Park Rangers' survival hopes as Chelsea moved to within 11 points of the title with a 1-0 win at Loftus Road.
With the game destined for a goalless draw after a spirited display from Rangers against the below-par Premier League leaders, Fabregas converted Eden Hazard's cross to shatter the home side and restore the Blues' seven-point lead at the top of the table.
Willian struck the woodwork in the opening exchanges, while Charlie Austin and Matt Phillips drew Chelsea 'keeper Thibaut Courtois into fine saves in each half, before Fabregas decided the outcome of the game.
Chelsea now require just three wins and two draws their remaining games to win a fourth Premier League crown, while Rangers remain in the bottom three, two points from safety.
Jose Mourinho handed Didier Drogba his first start since February’s win at Aston Villa after Loic Remy - who was expected to deputise for the injured Diego Costa - was ruled out of a reunion with his former club through injury.
In a first half of few chances, Chelsea inadvertently went closest to opening the scoring eight minutes in when Willian’s cross-shot almost caught Rob Green out but cannoned against the post.
With Drogba leading the line, the Blues’ pattern of play in the first half saw a number of long balls played up to the Ivorian, but Rangers centre-backs Nedum Onuoha and Steven Caulker dealt with the aerial assault.
Similarly, Rangers tried to find Bobby Zamora and Austin in advanced positions and, while this proved to be a fruitless venture at times, Rangers still posed a threat.
Ramires squandered a decent chance for the visitors as he steered Drogba’s cross over wide of the target on the half-hour mark, before Austin's rasping drive drew Courtois into a fine save on the verge of half-time.
Rangers started the second half the better of the two sides but failed to create a clear sight of the Chelsea goal until after an hour
