Premier League: Matchweek 10
- Venue: Turf Moor
- Date: Sunday, October 28
- Kick-off time: 17:30 PM
Burnley are looking for their first Premier League home win over Chelsea at the fifth attempt, while Maurizio Sarri is aiming to reach 10 matches unbeaten with the Blues.
TEAM:
Nick Pope remains out for Burnley, who are also missing Stephen Ward. Robbie Brady is in with an outside chance of returning, as is Ben Gibson.
Eden Hazard is a doubt with a back injury, which could offer Ruben Loftus-Cheek an opportunity after his hat-trick against BATE on Thursday.
FACTS:
Burnley have collected seven points from their last four matches (W2 D1 L1), one more than they picked up in their previous 11 Premier League outings.
This will be Sean Dyche's 10th PL match against an Italian manager (W3 D1 L5) and he has won three of his last six.
Maurizio Sarri can become the first Chelsea manager to remain unbeaten throughout his first 10 PL matches in charge.
Ross Barkley could become the first Englishman to score in three consecutive PL matches for Chelsea since February 2013, when Frank Lampard registered in four straight fixtures.
POSSIBLE LINE-UP:
- Referee: Craig Pawson
- Assistants: Ian Hussin, Richard West
- Fourth official: Lee Mason
