Chelsea have been the Premier League’s form team for weeks, but their home record carries a warning — six wins, four draws, and three losses at Stamford Bridge this term. Burnley, remarkably, are unbeaten in their last two trips to West London, holding the Blues to draws in 2021 and 2024. Seven of their eight points against London clubs have come away from home.
The key matchup? Cole Palmer — who has scored eight and assisted six against promoted sides in his career — returns to face a Burnley defence that has conceded more than anyone in the division.

Prediction
A rested Chelsea side, Palmer back in the XI, and Burnley’s leaky defence all point in one direction. While the Clarets’ away resilience deserves respect, conceding 51 league goals tells its own story. Expect the Blues to start sharp and not repeat the Leeds capitulation.
Prediction: Chelsea 3–1 Burnley
