THE PREDICTION

It has been a mediocre start to Chelsea’s season thus far, who have drawn three times and managed just two wins. With the transfer window they had, Chelsea are expected to be much higher than where they currently lie, but the game against Burnley will be seen as an easy three points on the road for Lampard. And with the way Burnley have played this season and their past results, one draw and four losses, it is understandable why. With key players rested for Chelsea’s game against Krasnodar on Wednesday, expect Chelsea to take all three points in emphatic style, with over 2.5 goals scored and an away win by a two goal or more margin.
