Scott Parker’s men will be desperate for survival in the Premier League, and they need to start picking up points. They are up against a strong Chelsea team, and this will be a difficult outing for them. Chelsea are unbeaten in the last six matches against Burnley, and they should be able to extend their impressive run of form against the Clarets.
