Burnley vs Chelsea Prediction & Betting tips
Chelsea plays on Turf Moor against Burnley on Sunday-afternoon. The home team lost at Manchester City last weekend and is not waiting for just such a zeperd against Chelsea.
Burnley:
In the Premier League we find Burnley back in thirteenth place. Last season The Clarets finished seventh. This season it is not all along and that can be seen in the position of Burnley in the rankings. Sean Dyche has an identical selection as last season, but performs less this season. The grumpy Dyche, however, has enough credit with Burnley and is not at all under pressure. The English manager may even lose a few games, as long as he is at the end of the stage but above the relegation streak they are satisfied with The Clarets.
They were not satisfied with the last result that Burnley booked. Last weekend, Manchester City was the opponent and Burnley does not think back to the duel at Etihad Stadium. The Clarets lost 5-0 to champion Manchester City. For Burnley it was already the third defeat of this season. Moreover, it was only the fourth time that Burnley lost a Premier League match with five or more goals difference. Manchester City was the opponent in two of the four times by chance. The Clarets lost in 2010 with 1-6 of The Citizens.
Chelsea:
That Chelsea with Maurizio Sarri is in the top of the Premier League will not surprise anyone. The Italian performed excellent with Napoli in the Serie A and does the same with Chelsea in the Premier League. It is often enjoyable when Chelsea plays football and that has been different in recent years. Chelsea is third in the Premier League with 21 points. The deficit at Manchester City and Liverpool – the two front runners – is two points. Two points that The Blues lost last weekend against Manchester United.
Chelsea played against The Red Devils on Stamford Bridge and played 2-2. Chelsea led 1-0, then had to score two goals and Ross Barkley gave The Blues another point in the final phase. Midweek Chelsea was allowed to play in the Europa League. Bate Borisov was the opponent on Stamford Bridge. Sarri did not start with his strongest team, but that is only positive in the Europa League for the time being. The substitutes are incredibly motivated, as is Ruben Loftus-Cheek. Chelsea won 3-1 vs. the Belarusians and Loftus-Cheek made all three goals on behalf of The Blues. The attacker did well at Crystal Palace last season, but Sarri thinks he is not ready for the big work. Loftus-Cheek is a great talent anyway. A player who normally makes it at Chelsea.
