Chelsea vs Burnley tips and predictions

Chelsea mental strength makes them tough to oppose

It's 11th placed Chelsea versus 19th placed Burnley in this Premier League clash as the hosts look to pile on the pressure by adding to the 22-point gap between the sides.

This preview says that Chelsea are on a different level to Burnley and even if it isn't sounding tempting, the short price is where you'll find good value. Once they cut loose they are often unstoppable.

Clearly Chelsea have looked like a prodigious outfit on their day. The hosts have reached 10 wins in 17 matches while the visitors have lost 13 of their last 20 matches, away and at home. Their backline will be exposed here too.

The hosts have enjoyed some superb passages of play. The Blues have scored three or more goals in 5 of their recent 8 matches.

Burnley have conceded two or more goals in 7 of their last 8 matches. Reviewing some of these findings presents an encouraging scenario for the home side to produce a result. They'll come into the match looking for holes that may appear in the visitors' defence.

These sides are familiar foes. Chelsea have won 8 of the last 10 fixtures between the two teams.

Despite the match being on Chelsea's terms it could be fun to see Burnley make a match of it. It isn't that obvious but the Yes BTTS bet is the speculative side bet. Whatever happens here, expect Chelsea to get this done.
