Chelsea had an eventful time against Burnley last season losing at home but winning 2-1 at Turf Moor. They have only lost one of their last eight games against Burnley and come into this game unbeaten in the Premier League with 13 points more than their opponents. Chelsea have won six and drawn three of their nine league matches and only Newcastle have beaten them in their last sixteen league games. They may be without Eden Hazard for this game but they have plenty in reserve to keep them going and can add to their record of six away wins in their last eight Premier League matches on the road.

Burnley had a terrible start to the season but have picked up a bit in recent weeks. Not last week though when losing 5-0 at Manchester City. Their defence isn't played as well as it did last season with 17 league goals conceded this term. Home form for Burnley has produced a win over Bournemouth, a draw with Huddersfield (not a sign of good form) and defeats by Watford and Manchester United. Only three of their last 14 home league games have ended in victory and this looks like being another weekend when Joe Hart keeps the score down. Go for a Chelsea win here.
