Burnley vs Chelsea, Premier League 2020-21, Match Prediction

Burnley hosts Chelsea at Turf Moor to find their first victory of the 2020-21 Premier League on Saturday. 

Match Timings: Oct 31, 8:30 PM  

Team Preview 

Lampard’s men make travel to Turf Moor to face struggling Burnley after a goalless draw with United. The Blues got an opportunity to score a goal but United saved it. They had previously defeated Krasnodar in Wednesday's Champions League fixture. Hakim Ziyech netted a goal on debut and Callum Hudson-Odoi, Timo Werner and Christian Pulisic also scored for Chelsea. Lampard’s side is unbeaten from five matches but they have just one win from their last five Premier League outings, including back-to-back draws with Southampton and Manchester United. The Blues have lost once in 12 Premier League meetings with Burnley, and in the previous season, they triumphed by 4-2, courtesy of Pulisic’s Hatrick. Meanwhile, the Clarets are searching for the first victory in the 2020-21 campaign. Sean Dyche's side has four losses and a draw from six matches thus far. In the previous encounter, they succumbed to a 1-0 defeat to Spurs last weekend. Before this defeat, they had appeared in a goalless draw with West Brom.
