MatchPlug Prediction For Chelsea VS Burnley
Subduing a free-scoring Chelsea should be challenging for Burnley, who will likely struggle with Fofana’s absence. They must now depend on other players to enter the final third if they want to pull off an upset.
Despite their unpredicatbility and weak backline, Chelsea are still strong favourites for Saturday’s matchup and winning Burnley should give them a headstart ahead of their important match with Manchester United next week.
Final Prediction: Chelsea Moneyline.
