Will Chelsea's quality destroy our side? Or will the determination to finish 6th or 7th drive our hard working players to a double win over the London team? I think it's a hard result to call but I'm dreaming of another 3 points.
So, what are your score forecasts?

I can’t see how to stop that midfield or front line. It’s so incredibly strong. I mean how the **** do you stop Ash Barnes??
3-0 Burnley

A hard fought 1-1 draw after a first half Chelsea goal. Wood to equalise in the 70th minute

Be a tough one this, Chelsea wont want Spurs to finish above them, they will throw everything at us and they wont put out a weaker team despite being 7 points behind Spurs and their FA cup game on Sunday, we will have to be at our very best to get anything out of the game, but as we all know, we seem to play out of our skin against the top teams and should things go our way we could do the double over them and go into 6th above Arsewipe, what a night it would be, at least until Arsewipe play their next game, we are certainly seeing a wonderful time at Burnley this season and long may it continue, how proud we are of our beloved CLARETS.

1-1. Another early goal for us and a late equaliser for Chelsea.

Yes, my prediction is also 1-1. However, I wouldn't be surprised if we nick it 1-0.

If we get an early goal, I could see Chelsea imploding. They have quality in spades, but their Team Spirit is dubious at best. Let’s not forget that they were down to 9 men against us in August. We need to get amongst them from the first whistle to the last.
This could be as famous a victory as the one on the opening day of the Season.
3:1 to Burnley.

Every Premier League season we've beaten the previous years champions 1-0 in the home game so Burnley 1-0 Chelsea

I feel Chelsea will be far too strong for us, and with at least 1 mistake per game Long in the side, I feel he will contribute to at least 1 of the Chelsea goals.
Chelsea to run riot, which will have a major effect on Sunday also.
Burnley 0 Chelsea 3
Commentators curse as per please.

I’d love to predict a win correctly but fear the kiss of death so will only predict that the weather will be fine.

A Spurs win tonight will take them clear of Chelsea and could help us on Thursday. Be very sweet to do the double over the Champions

if Chelsea play like they did for the first 65 minutes at Southampton then we will win, if they play like they did for the remainder of the game then it'll be a tough ask for us.

The best thing about Burnley right now is the fact that Thursdays score could be anything.
Literally anything.
Once of a day it was a foregone conclusion that we would lose.

2 - 0 with Ward scoring one. They may have better players, but we are a better team.

Are Chelsea the only visiting team to ever beat Burnley in a night game in the Premier league ?

Very easy 4-0 victory to us. Goals from Wood, Barnes, Vokes and Pope.

I think that was more a case of Chelsea getting one against the run of play and then the pressure of Southampton's situation got to them and they capitulated rather than Chelsea putting on some sort of barnstorming performance.
I think we will get about them and if they aren't up for it we will give them a bloody good hiding.
