Burnley – Chelsea Premier League 19 April 2018

The Burnley – Chelsea Premier League

Burnley has the smallest Premier League budget, the smallest stadium (22,000 seats), but ranks seventh! Difficult to overflow thanks to the defensive style of play put in place by Sean Dyche, the Clarets have hampered a good number of formations, including some of the top5. Nine points ahead of Leicester, his first pursuer, Burnley is already guaranteed to play the qualifications of the Europa League, provided that Southampton does not win the FA Cup (the Saints will have to win in Chelsea in half, before dropping Tottenham or United …). The European dream could be definitely sealed by passing Arsenal, 6th at two points. A prospect that would take a little more weight in case of a positive result in front of Chelsea, while the Gunners are they totally focused on the Europa League goal. Fifth to seven points Tottenham, the Blues must realize a 100%, hoping to see Harry Kane and his partners know a big blow of slack. Not interested in sharing points, Giroud and others will try everything to bring the three points of Turf Moor, at the risk of being trapped …

Key points of the Burnley – Chelsea prediction

Burnley has just tied five consecutive Premier League wins!

The Blues came out miraculously on the last day at Southampton (2-3).

Chelsea have only won three of their last ten games played away from Stamford Bridge in all competitions.

Burnley had won at Stamford Bridge a few months ago (1-2).

Prediction Burnley – Chelsea

Chelsea has missed everything pretty much this season. Unable to find real leaders on the field, the Blues – yet champions last year – do not support the comparison with the top4 of this fiscal 2017/2018. Well set to play at least the barrages of the next Europa League, these euphoric Clarets (5v consecutive) could well push a little more London group more concerned … Double chance 1N!
