Chelsea’s encounter with Burnley presents an opportunity for a couple of Chelsea stars to truly reaffirm their position and quality on the current side.
The home match promises to offer some positive even as Burnley have their own plans ahead of the game.
However, with the kind of quality Chelsea have got in the side they are expected to deliver the desired result.
On this note, we take a look at three players that can ensure victory at home with a positive showing for Chelsea.
WILLIAM BORGES
The talismanic figure is expected to do his side a good deal on the pitch as he brings the much-needed trust for Chelsea into the context.
William subject to transfer speculation has performed for the club on various occasions as he’s done against Tottenham Hotspur scoring twice against the side managed by his former boss Jose Mourinho.
He was a delight to watch against the London rivals and the same will be probable as Burnley face-up with Chelsea.
TAMMY ABRAHAM
The English forward has exploded into life at Chelsea as he’s got the backing of his manager Frank Lampard.
His performance has sidelined two enterprising forward in Michy Batshuayi and Olivier Giroud forcing the latter to be linked with an exit from the club in the ongoing transfer window.
Tammy’s impressive performance against Wolves (with a hat-trick in the 2-5 away win at Molineux Stadium) and that of Arsenal (in the 1-2 win at the Emirates) should suggest some positive from the players as he will be relied on up to shoot down Burnley at home with immense support high up the pitch.
CALUM HUDSON-ODOI
As the Blues welcomes Burnley at home, one player the fans are expecting to see may well be young winger Hudson-Odoi. He was instrumental in the sides 2-0 win against Nottingham forest as he scored and provided the assist for Barkley’s second goal in the game.
Much will be expected from the youngster who is a good friend of former Chelsea star Eden Hazard as he adds width to the Blues attack with his penetrating runs into the box.
