Chelsea had a wonderful experience last night in the Uefa Europa League match against BATE Borisov at Stamford Bridge.

However, they will be making a return to the English Premier having battled Man Utd last weekend to a draw, thanks to a late equalizer from another English midfielder, Ross Barkley.

Chelsea FC will be leaving Stamford Bridge to play against Burnley, who are struggling to perform following a devastating defeat by Manchester City over the weekend.

But this time around, there will be a complete change in the Blues defense line, Jorginho and Ngolo Kante will likely return to the midfield including one of Matteo Kovacic or Ross Barkley.
