It was a bitterly disappointing result for Burnley at King Power Stadium last weekend. Having taken the lead in 26th minute through Chris Wood, they failed to capitalise as both Jamie Vardy and Youri Tielemans struck for the hosts to take the lead, before Wood had an equaliser ruled out by VAR eight minutes from time, which remains a very controversial decision.
Chelsea on the other hand, produced Frank Lampard’s best result since taking the reins in South West London as they defeated Ajax at Johan Cruyff Arena, inflicting the Dutch club’s their first loss in 20 games dating back to the Champions League semi-final in May as well as the first goal they’d conceded at home for over 420 minutes of football.
The Blues will know their attention will need to turn to the Premier League quickly and although they’ve won six matches now on the bounce, they’ll know a trip to Turf Moor will be tricky.
Indeed, last term they may have cruised to a 4-0 victory but Sean Dyche’s charges were well off the pace at the time and they can expect a much more competitive fixture this time around.
However, dating back to the start of the 2014/15 campaign, Chelsea have won three of four unbeaten trips here, with as many seeing both teams score and three or more goals, while their meetings at all venues have seen six of their eight matches see both sides register in that time.
Both Teams To Score
It is hard to ignore the Clarets’ form on home turf this season, as they’ve won three of their four matches thus far, as league leaders Liverpool were the only side to get the better of them.
They did also keep a clean sheet in each of those victories, but coming against all of Southampton, Everton and Norwich it’s hardly surprising, with the former two netting a maximum of just nine goals this term, while the Canaries have only hit the back of the net once on the road this season.
They can expect a different kind of challenge from the Blues though, with them already on 19 goals for the campaign although they do also have the worst defence out of the top-16 in the table too.
Chelsea To Win And Over 2.5 Goals
Looking at the hosts’ form against the ‘Big Six’ sides we can see that they’ve struggled down the years to get a result.
They have gone W2-D6-L18 from their 26 such outings since the start of 2017/18, as 18 have seen more than two goals throughout the match too.
Couple that with Chelsea’s current run on the road across all competitions, winning each of the last five, while both teams scored as well as there being a minimum of three goals in four of them and we like the high output win for the visitors.
Both Teams To Score (Yes) At 6/10
Chelsea To Win And Over 2.5 Goals At 21/10
