Burnley vs Chelsea Betting Odds, Tips, Predictions, Preview 7th October 2023
Burnley will be hosting a Turf Moor encounter on Saturday when Chelsea arrive for a test of their credentials.
Burnley are placed 18th with four points after seven matches. Chelsea occupy a position as 11th in the league on eight points.
Burnley welcome Chelsea on Saturday with the clear intention of not letting the gap, which already exists between the two in the Premier League table widen any further. This is a good chance for the latter though, to keep the home side firmly in their rearview mirror.
Burnley are not a high scoring team these days, as they only found the back of the net eight times in the last ten outings. That is an average of just 0.8 goals per game, as they conceded 20 goals. They managed zero clean sheets in these matches.
Chelsea average 0.9 goals a game in their last ten outing, scoring a total of nine goals. They conceded an average of 1.2 per game, for a total of 12 goals, whilst keeping their opponents from scoring three times.
The last time these two sides facing off here came up against each other, The Blues came away with a 0-4 win. They have a similar outcome in mind at Turf Moor, but face stern opposition, of course.
