Burnley vs Chelsea prediction

While Chelsea benefitted from some poor Fulham defending in their win at Craven Cottage, a return to goalscoring form will be a relief for Pochettino.

There were plenty of positives in that display, while only Sheffield United have conceded more Premier League goals so far this season than Burnley. Chelsea can make it two wins on the bounce and keep the mood positive heading into a fortnight away from club football.

Chelsea to win, 2-0.
