Burnley boss Sean Dyche insists they can compete with Chelsea today.
Burnley beat Chelsea's fellow 'big six' side Tottenham 1-0 on February 23, while the reverse fixture at Stamford Bridge in November ended 1-1.
Dyche said of Thomas Tuchel's third-placed Blues: “There's a bit of noise as if they're not as strong as they were, but at the end of the day they've only lost one in 10 (league games).
“That's a message in itself. They are still a very strong outfit – maybe just not currently where Liverpool and Manchester City are, but very strong.
“We have to be realistic with that – equally, we have found ways of operating against these teams and we're going to have to do that again."
