The Burnley team will challenge the Chelsea team in a Matchday 8 Premier League in Turf Moor Stadium, Burnley on Saturday, October 07, 2023. For streaming coverage of Burnley vs Chelsea, preview and how to watch it, see in this article.
Chelsea will visit Burnley’s headquarters at Turf Moor on Saturday morning ET, 7/10 in the continuation of week 8 of the 2023/24 Premier League. This is a good opportunity for Mauricio Pochettino’s troops to get 3 more points, before entering a break of almost 2 weeks for the national team to compete.
The Blues are showing signs of coming back strongly after 2 consecutive wins in all competitions without conceding a goal. They have beaten Fulham 3-0 in the Premier League and Shakhtar Donetsk 2-0 in the Champions League. Thanks to that, Chelsea has risen to 4th place in the standings with 13 points, only 4 points behind Liverpool who top the standings.
Not only that, the Blues are also very confident when they visit Turf Moor, where they have won against the hosts in 7 of the last 8 meetings. The remaining matches ended in a 1-1 draw. Pochettino’s Chelsea played solidly at the back and efficiently up front. Apart from that, a dominating meeting record will also help Chelsea be confident of achieving the target of 3 points in this match.
Meanwhile, Burnley experienced difficulties again when they just won their first win of the season, when they beat promoted team Lutton Town 2-1 at home in Week 7. Previously, Vincent Kompany’s team lost 5, drew 1 in the first 6 weeks. This means that at home to Turf Moor, Burnley still haven’t won any matches, and haven’t even got a point.
Burnley have lost all 4 home games in the Premier League this season, conceding 12 goals and scoring just 3. It seems they have not been able to adapt to the harsh environment in the highest league in Queen Elizabeth’s country. They also did not have full strength when they had to lose many important players due to injury.
On the other hand, Mauricio Pochettino also had to leave Ben Chilwell, Wesley Fofana, Benoît Badiashile, Marcus Bettinelli, Reece James, Trevoh Chalobah, Roméo Lavia, Christopher Nkunku out due to injury. Meanwhile, right-back Malo Gusto is still serving his ban from playing. This was the final match in the 20 year old player’s 3 match ban.
However, Poch got striker Nicolas Jackson back after being banned from playing in the match against Fulham. Apart from that, minor injuries to Moises Caicedo or Mykhaylo Mudryk are also nothing to worry about, and it is very likely that they will still appear in the starting line-up when they visit Burnley. However, Chelsea is still the favorite to win the match.
