Can Chelsea apply the pressure on Manchester City and move ten-points clear

The Blues produced one of the displays of the season on the opening weekend of this season as they fought back from a goal down to win 3-1 at Turf Moor.

Having escaped from the Parc des Princes still in their Champions League last-16 tie with PSG, Chelsea’s attention turns to taking a step closer to their first Premier League in five years with victory over Burnley.

Back then, few gave Burnley any hope of surviving in the league full of European football heavyweights, but Sean Dyche’s side have flourished as the season has progressed.

However, if the copy book is to follow suit once again, Manchester City will surely come under the spotlight against Newcastle, and they will simply have to win.
