Burnley vs Chelsea LIVE: Premier League latest score and confirmed lineups | Football
The Premier League is back with Chelsea taking on Burnley this afternoon.
It hasn’t always been rosy for Enzo Maresca this season but his Chelsea side are sitting pretty in third place and could move to within three points of Premier League leaders Arsenal this afternoon.
It could make things very interesting with the Blues hosting Mikel Arteta’s side at Stamford Bridge next week.
But there is work to be done first at Turf Moor. Chelsea have had to get used to playing without Cole Palmer this season and will have to continue without their talisman for another few weeks after a freak accident at home that saw him fracture his toe.
The Blues emerged from the final international break relatively unscathed otherwise with focus now on closing the gap on the top.
