Chelsea v Burnley: match preview


Chelsea could do without a visit from Burnley after their recent problems at home. Burnley have only lost one of their last four games at Stamford Bridge and have the capacity to cause problems for any team. Chelsea, who will be without Christian Pulisic for a fortnight because of an adductor injury, need to sharpen up against opponents lying four points above the bottom three. Jacob Steinberg
