Chelsea Vs. Burnley 4:00pm today by Henrybright(op):
Date / Time: Saturday, February 21, 2015, 15:00 GMT;
10am EST; 8:30pm IST
Venue: Stamford Bridge, SW6
Referee: Martin Atkinson --

Chelsea team news: John Obi Mikel remains the only
official injury victim, though as Mourinho revealed that four
starters against PSG hadn't trained at all before that match,
our fitness situation isn't exactly worry free.
Presumably at least three of those players will start today
as well (Hazard, Ivanović, Fàbregas) with perhaps Juan
Cuadrado getting the nod over the fourth, Willian. I'm
assuming Oscar will be back in the middle, relegating
Ramires to the bench and allowing Fàbregas to drop deeper
to orchestrate things. And, for the first time since he trod on
Emre Can's foot, Diego Costa will be back to continue
adding to his already impressive domestic goal total. The
striker has six goals in his last 7 Premier League games.
Manchester City have Saturday's late kick-off at home
against Newcastle United, so for just a few hours at least,
Chelsea have the opportunity to open up a 10-point lead at
the top.

Burnley team news: As far as surprisingly dangerous
opponents go, teams involved in the relegation fight can
always cause problems. Remember Sunderland ? (I'm sorry
if you do, or just did.) There are just three points separating
five teams -- Burnley, Aston Villa , QPR, Hull, and Sunderland
-- and even though Burnley lead the league in goals
conceded, they got a bit unlucky to not get a better result at
Old Trafford last week, while not that long ago they scored
two against Manchester City to earn a draw at the Etihad.
21-year-old Danny Ings is another striker in great form (5 in
his last 6) -- more on him and the rest of Sean Dyche's
setup in Rob's great opposition analysis .
Burnley will be without the services of Dean Marney , Kevin
Long (both ACL), and Matthew Taylor (Achilles). Marney is
the one big loss for the visitors; he had started 12 straight
Premier League games before his injury

Team to face Burnley: Courtois;
Ivanovic, Zouma, Terry (c), Filipe Luis;
Matic, Fabregas; Cuadrado, Oscar,
Hazard; Diego Costa

Today's subs: Cech, Azpilicueta, Cahill,
Ramires, Willian, Drogba and Remy.
