"Chelsea have lost just one of their 19 Premier League games against Burnley (W13 D5), going down 3-2 at home on the opening weekend of the 2017-18 season. Burnley have conceded at least twice in each of their last eight Premier League away games against London sides. They did, however, beat Crystal Palace 3-2 last time out, only once before winning consecutive visits to the capital in the same season (vs Crystal Palace and West Ham in 2019-20)."
"Chelsea have dropped more points from winning positions in Premier League home games than any other side this season (15). Indeed, only in 1995-96 (20) and 2015-16 (16) have they dropped more at Stamford Bridge in a single campaign. No team has scored in more different Premier League games than Chelsea this season (24), with the Blues' only two blanks coming in goalless draws against Crystal Palace in August and Bournemouth in December."
Cole Palmer is available for Chelsea after being rested in the FA Cup; Marc Cucurella remains out with a thigh injury. Burnley continue to miss several players including Zeki Amdouni and Josh Cullen, with Jaidon Anthony fit to travel. Expected line-ups list Sanchez; James, Fofana, Chalobah, Hato; Santos, Caicedo; Palmer, Fernandez, Neto; Pedro for Chelsea and Dubravka; Laurent, Worral, Esteve; Walker, Ugochukwu, Hannibal, Humphreys; Edwards, Anthony; Flemming for Burnley. Chelsea have a strong historical record versus Burnley but have dropped many home points from winning positions this season. The match kicks off at 3pm on Saturday and is not broadcast or streamed in the UK.
