Overview
- Chelsea visit Turf Moor on Saturday at 12:30pm GMT, with TNT Sports broadcasting the Premier League opener after the international break.
- Enzo Maresca is set to be without Cole Palmer, who remains out with a groin issue, while Benoit Badiashile is a doubt and Romeo Lavia is ruled out.
- Estevao is being considered for a start after strong recent displays, as Maresca balances rotation ahead of Barcelona on Tuesday and Arsenal next Sunday.
- Chelsea arrive in form after back‑to‑back league wins to sit third, and a victory at Burnley could move them up to second for a few hours.
- Storm Claudia has triggered Met Office warnings elsewhere in the North, but Lancashire is not under the alert, making postponement unlikely though conditions may be testing.
