Chelsea Vs Burnley Head to Head: The SportRush brings you the head to head statistics between Chelsea and Burnley.
Chelsea will face off Burnley on Monday night at Stamford Bridge. The Blues are level on points with their arch-rivals Arsenal and one point below Tottenham Hotspur, but they have the fantastic opportunity to sit in a top-four spot after the completion of this game. Even though Burnley are eight points above the relegation zone, Sean Dyche’s side will be keen on procuring all three points to guarantee their safety in the English top flight.
After progressing to the last four of the Europa League, Chelsea will have all-embracing confidence to enter into the next game. They struggled in the second half against a side which knocked Sevilla out of the competition, but the return of Eden Hazard, Callum Hudson-Odoi, and Ruben Loftus Cheek to the starting lineup will reinforce the front line.
On the other hand, Burnley, who were nagging around the relegation spots have found their way with three victories in the last three Premier League games. With Chris Wood and Ashley Barnes in the forward line, the Clarets can frustrate the gentle defence of Chelsea which struggles to deal with long balls.
Both the teams head into this game, we shall look at the head-to-head statistics.

Chelsea have been inconsistently lately having won three out of their last five games in the Premier League. Those two defeats came on road, while their home record remains intact with Wolverhampton Wanderers being the last club to take points off last month.
Burnley are heading into this fixture with three wins on a trot and would find their feet on Monday despite having a lamentable record against Chelsea in the Premier League.
