Newly promoted Burnley couldn’t have asked for a tougher initiation into the Premier League than a clash with powerhouse Chelsea.
Having finished in third last season, Jose Mourinho has been active in the transfer market and has bolstered his squad with big guns Diego Costa and Cesc Fabregas as well as bringing back Didier Drogba to join Costa up front.
Burnley will no doubt fight hard in their season opener in front of a boisterous home crowd but Chelsea simply boasts far too much firepower for the minnows.
