By winning, the champions moved to within four points of the Premier League leaders, and ensured they're still very much in with a chance of finishing top.
The next two months will be crucial for both sides who must maintain their intensity and continue to pick up points at an alarming rate.

So who has the better run in January? Here we take a look at Manchester City and Liverpool's next five league matches to see how it could shape the title race moving into the business end of this season's campaign.
Manchester City's next match in the English top flight is at home to Wolves , who they'll be expecting to beat at the Etihad.
They then travel to Huddersfield , who can't seem to stem the flow of their losing streak at the moment, meaning the Reds will again be hot favourites to take home three points.
City's third league match after Liverpool is against Newcastle at St James' Park. The Magpies have proven themselves defensively organised at home this season, but again City should be taking all three points from the tie.
The Citizens' final two matches in this run of five are both at home, which is a bonus, but are against Arsenal and Chelsea.
Pep Guardiola's men have already beaten the Gunners once this season at the Emirates, but the match will be anything but a walk in the park.
Chelsea on the other hand got the better of Manchester City at Stamford Bridge not too long ago, and Mauricio Sarri will be looking for a repeat performance from his players.
Liverpool meanwhile head to Brighton for their first league game after City, where they will be expecting to bounce back with a win.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer knows what will get him the Man Utd job — and it's NOT winning
After that they play host to Crystal Palace and Leicester City - again teams that can pose problems on their day, but again teams Klopp will be expecting his Reds side to beat.
Liverpool's final two matches in this run of five are against West Ham at the London Stadium and Bournemouth at Anfield.
West Ham have been on a great run of form, but their recent defeat to Burnley proves they still have errors in them, and will therefore have to be at their absolute best to get anything against Liverpool.
Bournemouth meanwhile have been suffering of late, recording three defeats and a draw in their past five matches.
At Anfield, you'd think, Liverpool will have too much for them and you'd have to say have the easier run out of the two title challengers in their next five games.
