Preview: Chelsea vs. Burnley
Chelsea, aiming for their third consecutive victory across various competitions, prepares to face relegation-threatened Burnley at Stamford Bridge on Saturday. Their momentum stems from a 4-2 triumph over Championship side Leicester in the FA Cup quarter-finals.
Recent Performances
Breaking the resistance of ten-man Leicester proved challenging for Chelsea, but they secured victory in added time with goals from Carney Chukwumueka and substitute Noni Madueke.
Burnley, on the other hand, secured only their fourth league win of the season by defeating Brentford 2-1 at Turf Moor, bringing them closer to safety amidst Nottingham Forest’s point deduction.
Head-to-Head History
Historically, Chelsea has dominated this fixture, securing six victories and a draw in the previous seven encounters against Burnley. During their last visit to Turf Moor, the Blues secured a commanding 4-1 triumph.
Prediction: Chelsea’s Dominance
Considering Burnley’s defensive struggles and Chelsea’s prolific goal-scoring form, there is ample reason to anticipate a high-scoring affair at Stamford Bridge. With Chelsea’s history of scoring three or more goals in five of their last seven encounters with Burnley, a victory for Chelsea with over 3.5 goals seems likely.
Betting Tips
Alternatively, betting on Chelsea’s primary striker, Nicolas Jackson, to score at any point during the match could prove fruitful, given his recent form and Burnley’s defensive vulnerabilities.
