TEAM NEWS Burnley summer signing Lukas Jutkiewicz could partner Danny Ings up front after impressing in pre-season. Goalkeeper Tom Heaton is fit after missing several warm-up games with a calf injury. Chelsea could hand debuts to new trio Cesc Fabregas, Diego Costa and Filipe Luis - and keeper Thibaut Courtois. The Blues will assess Didier Drogba's knee injury, while several players involved in the latter stages of the World Cup may lack match fitness. MATCH PREVIEW This will be a special game but nothing will replicate a memorable, balmy August evening in 2009 that was barmy! Who will ever forget Robbie Blake's stunning volley versus champions Manchester United that literally shook the stands at Turf Moor to ensure a famous win. Burnley's ground was a difficult patch on which to gain a result that season - they followed up that win with a victory over Everton and also held Arsenal in December. However, after losing just once in their opening nine games at Turf Moor they then found the going tough, and won only two more home matches after Christmas. Sean Dyche has been busy bolstering his squad but his investment is only a small fraction of the spending of Jose Mourinho, who has been quick to address the weakness from last season - a lack of goals. http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/28735901 |

Team News Burnley make their return to the Premier League with a virtually fully-fit squad. Only striker Sam Vokes, who ruptured the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee in March, definitely misses Monday's clash against Chelsea at Turf Moor. Summer signings Lukas Jutkiewicz, Michael Kightly, Steven Reid, Marvin Sordell and Matt Taylor will hope to make their debuts. Meanwhile, Jose Mourinho will keep Thibaut Courtois and Petr Cech guessing on which goalkeeper will start for Chelsea. Striker Didier Drogba is expected to shake off an ankle problem to be passed fit for action, with Diego Costa and Fernando Torres also in contention. Match Notes The worst time to face a newly promoted team is in your opening fixture, so Chelsea will not thank the fixture planners for sending them to Burnley. The ‘Ginger Mourinho’ faces the real one in the kind of culture clash the Premier League specialises in. The (relatively) skint Lancastrians welcome the King’s Road gentry, the millionaires pursuing the title encountering the journeymen whose target is survival. Burnley will show endeavour and grit, but Chelsea will, of course, win. Stat of the game: Chelsea are unbeaten in their opening fixture since 1998, winning 13 of 15 games. Chris Bascombe's prediction : Burnley 0 Chelsea 1. |

No team scored more than twice on Saturday and Sunday and if neither Burnley nor Chelsea score three or more on Monday night it will be the first time since 1912 that no team has scored three on the opening weekend. 102 years of hurt. 1 Like |
