Chelsea are unbeaten in 11 meetings with Burnley, winning eight of them. The Blues have also won each of their last six visits to Turf Moor, as well as eight of their last nine in Lancarshire; the Clarets' most-recent home win over Chelsea came in 1983.
Burnley vs Chelsea preview
As the Premier League returns following the final international break of 2025, Chelsea sit third in the table, but this is the start of a key week, so will they pick up all three points in Lancarshire? A fortnight ago, the Blues steamrollered bottom of the table Wolves 3-0 at Stamford Bridge; Malo Gusto, João Pedro and Pedro Neto all on target in West London. Thus, Enzo Maresca's side have now won four of their last five in the league, albeit a home defeat to Sunderland is a major blot on their copy book.
Nevertheless, having beaten both Liverpool and Tottenham in recent times, there are certainly signs that Chelsea are heading in the right direction. This week though, the Blues welcome Barcelona to Stamford Bridge in the Champions League on Tuesday, before a fierce London derby against table toppers Arsenal next Sunday. Here though, Maresca's side should cruise to victory.
As for Burnley, most forecast that they would finish rock bottom of the Premier League table before a ball was kicked, so it is probably noteworthy that they're currently not in the relegation zone, albeit only by virtue of goal difference. Last time out, Scott Parker's side were defeated in a key game, beaten 3-2 by fellow strugglers West Ham at the London Stadium. Zian Flemming did give them the lead in Stratford, but Josh Cullen's goal back in injury time proved a mere consolation.
Nevertheless, Burnley did enjoy back-to-back victories over Leeds and Wolves in October, while only last season's top two, namely Liverpool and Arsenal, have left Turf Moor with all three points thus far. So, can the Clarets derail Chelsea, or will the Blues be too strong come Saturday lunchtime?

Burnley team news
Scott Parker's lineups have been very settled throughout this season, with few changes forecast here.
Lesley Ugochukwu, Bashir Humphreys and Armando Broja could all come up against their former clubs, albeit the latter is a doubt after being stretchered off towards the end of Albania's 2-0 defeat to England in Tirana last Sunday.
Burnley predicted lineup vs Chelsea: (4-5-1): Dúbravka; Walker, Estève, Tuanzebe, Hartman; Cullen, Ugochukwu, Florentino Luís, Tchaouna, Anthony; Flemming.
Burnley player to watch vs Chelsea
Zian Flemming has scored three goals in his last three Premier League games, including a brace when Burnley beat Wolves last month, so he'll be their most-likely source of goals here too.
Chelsea team news
For Enzo Maresca, Levi Colwill, Benoît Badiashile, Roméo Lavia and Cole Palmer remain sidelined. Meantime, Enzo Fernández is a doubt, having withdrawn from the Argentina squad due to a knee injury, while Pedro Neto also was not involved for Portugal due to a groin issue.
So, having scored for Brazil against Senegal in North London last weekend, Estêvão Willian is set to start, with compatriot João Pedro as well as Liam Delap leading the attack.
Chelsea predicted lineup vs Burnley: (4-3-3): Sánchez; Guston, Fofan, Adarabioyo, Cucurella; Caicedo, James, Estêvão, João Pedro, Garnacho; Delap.
Chelsea player to watch vs Burnley
Moisés Caicedo remains so key to Chelsea, at the heart of their midfield, so without Lavia and possibly Fernández too, the Ecuadorian may be their most important player in this match.
Burnley vs Chelsea prediction
We cannot see any other outcome than a comfortable Chelsea victory. Burnley ultimately lack quality, so even a slightly depleted Blues side should be simply too strong at Turf Moor: Burnley 0-2 Chelsea.
