In good form!

FT: Burnley 0-2 Chelsea

A crucial three points for Enzo Maresca's side ahead of a crucial week. Pedro Neto and Enzo Fernandez with the goals.

Burnley threatened at times and started the game well, but struggled in the final third.

Into added time...

Six additional minutes at the end of the second half.

GOAL! THERE'S THE WINNER!

That's all three points secured! Marc Guiu plays it back to Enzo Fernandez in the box and he slots home. Big goal for the Blues.

Burnley 0-2 Chelsea

Booking!

Burnley have a corner and Badiashile goes into the book. He was wrestling with Esteve and wouldn't let him on the pitch!

Burnley 0-1 Chelsea

SAVE!

Neto and Gusto play a neat one-two but the eventual shot is saved. Chelsea corner then cleared.

Burnley 0-1 Chelsea

MISS!

Big chance for Burnley as Flemming should score. He can't keep his effort down and it flies over the bar, but the clearest opportunity of the game for the hosts.

Burnley 0-1 Chelsea

CHANCE!

Neto agonisingly close to a second but he can't beat the post. It's eventually cleared to prevent a tap-in and the resulting Chelsea corner eventually finds the hands of Dúbravka.

Burnley 0-1 Chelsea

Chelsea in control...

We hit the hour mark and the visitors are controlling possession well, without offering too much threat.

Burnley have struggled to find their way back into this after falling behind before the break.

Burnley 0-1 Chelsea

Chance...

Chelsea showing the most impetus but Liam Delap lingers on the ball for too long and is dispossessed close to goal.

HT: Burnley 0-1 Chelsea

A relatively even contest so far but the all important goal was scored by the visitors. A Jamie Gittens cross turned in by a diving head from Pedro Neto.

A strong start to the season for Pedro Neto!

GOAL! CHELSEA AHEAD!

A fantastic ball is headed into the net by Pedro Neto. They've looked second best for most of the first half but they snatch the lead!

Burnley 0-1 Chelsea

CHANCE!

A rare Chelsea move ends with the ball being played across to an on-rushing Jamie Gittens. Kyle Walker does brilliantly to get there first and send it out for a corner.

Much better from the visitors.

Burnley 0-0 Chelsea

Chelsea yet to get going...

Burnley winning their battles thus far and restricting their opponent to scraps. Enzo Maresca's side needing to put in a lot of last-ditch defending, but they are getting a foot to everything so far.

Burnley 0-0 Chelsea

SAVE!

A strong opening for Burnley but Tchaouna's effort from distance is comfortably held by Sanchez. Chelsea were caught out!

Burnley 0-0 Chelsea

CHANCE!

Tchaouna is causing all sorts of problems for Chelsea. This time, it's Tosin who makes the crucial block to keep the hosts out. Enzo Maresca's side living on the edge at the moment.

Burnley 0-0 Chelsea

Wasted...

Chelsea have a dangerous three vs two but Liam Delap is wasteful with an effort off target from distance.

Burnley 0-0 Chelsea

BLOCK!

Big change for Burnley to hurt Chelsea on the break but Trevoh Chalobah makes a decisive interception on the edge of the box.

Burnley 0-0 Chelsea

Break in play...

Sanchez attempted to play the ball out to Neto, but instead hits Enzo Fernandez in the back of the head. The midfielder is down receiving treatment.

Burnley 0-0 Chelsea
