The sixth round of Premier League fixtures take place this weekend and the 3:00 PM kick off on Saturday is between Burnley and Chelsea. The match will be played at Turf Moor with the hosts down in 18th place on 1 point and the visitors in 10th place on 9 points.
Burnley put up a good fight in their previous Premier League game at home against Tottenham Hotspur but ultimately lost the match 1-0. They will be disappointed to have conceded a goal from a corner and would have been hoping to build on the point they gained in a 0-0 draw at West Bromwich Albion the previous week.
The draw at West Bromwich Albion remains the only point Burnley have won this season. They have lost each of the other 4 games including defeats at Leicester City and Newcastle United plus a home loss at the hands of Southampton.
The only victory for Burnley this season has come in the League Cup against lower league opposition but they have since been eliminated from the tournament by Manchester City.
Trends show Burnley have failed to score a single goal in their last 4 home games in all competitions. They have suffered 3 consecutive home defeats in the Premier League and have kept just one clean sheet in their last 6 Premier League matches.
Chelsea come into the match having defeated Krasnodar 4-0 away from home in the Champions League. It was a good result for The Blues but they can thank the generosity of their hosts as much as their own good football. The victory ends a run of 3 matches without a win for Chelsea and extends their unbeaten run to 8 matches, including the 1-1 draw at full-time against Tottenham Hotspur in the League Cup.
However, the win in Russia was their first in 4 attempts following 3 straight draws. Two of the 3 draws came in the Premier League, one of which was at West Bromwich Albion and the other came at Old Trafford last weekend courtesy of a 0-0 draw.
There is no doubt that Chelsea have improved defensively in recent weeks and they have kept a clean sheet in each of their last 3 games in all competitions.
Trends show over 2.5 goals have been seen in 14 of Chelsea's last 18 matches in the Premier League and they have managed to score at least two goals in 23 of their 35 most recent games in all competitions.
Team news and Burnley are still without central defender Ben Mee and midfielder Jack Cork due to injury. Erik Pieters and Phil Bardsley are doubts.
Chelsea travel without midfielder Billy Gilmour and goalkeeper, Kepa, who are both injured. N’Golo Kante, Reece James, and Mason Mount could start having been on the bench on Wednesday night. Thiago Silva could return in central defence.
Burnley are desperate to pick up their first victory of the season but face an extremely difficult task against Chelsea. We expect to see the away team score 2 or more goals on their way to victory, with the possibility of a clean sheet.
