Chelsea continue their pursuit of a Premier League top-four finish as Burnley head to west London on Saturday.
Frank Lampard's Blues had looked in danger of slipping out the Champions League qualification places, but fine wins at Tottenham and Arsenal have left the Blues with a five-point cushion before they welcome an out-of-sorts Burnley.
Date: Saturday, January 11th, 2020
Venue: Stamford Bridge, London.
Kick-off time: 3pm GMT
Prediction: Chelsea 3-1 Burnley
Chelsea boast a great League record against Burnley, losing just once in 11 games. The Clarets have lost their last three League outings to slip to 15th, and are unlikely to find any joy at the Bridge.
Head to head (H2H) history and results
- 11 Premier League games
- Chelsea: 7 wins
- Burnley: 1 win
- Draws: 3
This season: Burnley 2-4 Chelsea (26/10/2019)
Burnley's sole Premier League win over Chelsea came at the Bridge in 2017 (3-2), but Chelsea have won three of the last four meetings, scoring 12 goals.

What's wrong with Jorginho?
Jorginho is nog creative. He distributes passes and dictates play. Ziyech and Coutinho don't do that. They're very different roles

In my opinion as a Chelsea fan I think we r lacking a playmaker in our squad a midfielder who is similar to Kevin de bruyn and it is Coutinho...pls Chelsea board no need to sign many players jus becaz the ban has been lifted. Bring in Ziyech Caz we also lack a player who can break the defence, His Crosses r accurate, can score freekicks and most important his a strong left footed player. No need of Zaha or Sancho while u can get ziyech for only 50m. Pls Chelsea board act wisely
