Premier League: Chelsea vs Burnley 21/02/2026

Rested and improving in form, Chelsea are strong favorites against a risk-taking Burnley side, so with the low odds on the home win, value may lie in combining a Chelsea victory with Both Teams to Score.

Chelsea have overcome their dip in form during the holiday period and have produced very good results over the past month. The managerial change has also had an immediate impact, with Rosenior quickly improving the team’s performances. In the last month they hold a 4-1-0 league record, along with two additional wins in the Champions League.

Since the start of the season they have had little rest, so a free midweek and rotation in last Friday’s FA Cup match against Hull (a 4-0 away win) should have refreshed the squad.

Burnley sit second from bottom, nine points behind the safety zone. This has influenced their approach, as in their search for wins they now take more risks, creating and conceding a higher number of chances.

A rested and clearly superior Chelsea side are big favorites and justify that status. Although not fully consistent, they have improved significantly over the past month. Burnley will take risks and are capable of scoring at least once, having found the net in all seven away matches against teams currently in the top half of the table.

A straight home win is priced around 1.20. The combination with Both Teams to Score (BTTS) is worth considering, as it significantly boosts the odds.
