In Cardiff, players and fans paid tribute to missing club forward Emiliano Sala in the 2-0 win against Bournemouth.
Wolverhampton Wanderers won 3-1 at Everton on a day when most top teams were not playing, while Fulham went down 2-0 at Crystal Palace, Burnley tied 1-1 with Southampton and Brighton & Hove Albion and Watford was aimless.
Goals were never a problem in Chelsea, where the signing of their new loan did not take long to present his supporters – and to remind coach Maurizio Sarri – of his power.
First, Higuain spared a space in the area to fire after 16 minutes of play, then managed to deceive the opposing goalkeeper after 16 minutes.
Eden Hazard also scoring twice and David Luiz adding the fifth goal, Chelsea gave the prefect's answer to his 4-0 midweek game in Bournemouth, which was putting pressure on Sarri.
"Apart from the goals (Higuain scored), he is really very apt to play very close to Eden," said Sarri, for whom Higuain had scored 38 times in their last season together in Naples in 2015-16 .
"I think in the field, they are really very appropriate to play against each other."
The win brought Chelsea back to fourth place, three points ahead of Arsenal, who will travel to Manchester City on Sunday, while Huddersfield remained trapped in the basement, six points behind Fulham, second. Liverpool leaders travel to West Ham on Monday.
The Spurs are used to scoring the winners with Son, who also tied against Watford midweek. They moved over Manchester City from one point and less than four from Liverpool.
After spoiling a series of chances, Tottenham finally scored in the 83rd minute, although Son thanked Newcastle goalkeeper Martin Dubravka for allowing a hopeful shot to slip out of the box.
In Cardiff, the stadium was flooded with tribute to Sala, which has not been seen since the plane in which he was traveling disappeared almost two weeks ago.
