Mark Lawrenson states his prediction for Chelsea vs Burnley

Chelsea will be preparing to host Burnley on Sunday, January 31. This will be Thomas Tuchel's second game as the Blues head coach. His first game as head coach was against Wolves which ended in a goalless draw. Ahead of the game, BBC football expert Mark Lawrenson stated his prediction. "I wonder if new Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel has come up against a team who play quite like Burnley before? I doubt it. "The Clarets are doing well and will be full of confidence after beating Liverpool and Aston Villa in their past two league games, to give themselves a bit of breathing space above the bottom three. "By the way things looked during Wednesday's draw with Wolves, Tuchel has made improving the Blues' defence his priority. If they can get that right again here, I think he can get his first win under his belt." Lawrenson's score prediction: 2-1 source - BBC
