LUTON, England (Reuters) -Chelsea survived a late Luton Town fightback to return to winning ways on the road with a 3-2 win at Kenilworth Road on Saturday, with Cole Palmer netting twice either side of a fine Noni Madueke strike.

The expensively assembled Blues had lost their previous four Premier League away games but looked certain to claim all three points when they were 3-0 up against relegation-threatened Luton with little more than 10 minutes of normal time remaining.
