Chelsea surf into Turf Moor on a cold October Sunday, in search of three points to keep pace with the rest of the top five.

Daylight savings may be over, but there is no saving the Blues from effort of having to break down Burnley today.

No surprises in the lineup from Sarri, with Barkley replacing Kovačić, who started on Thursday, and no Eden Hazard at all as he apparently has not traveled. For the visitors, Robbie Brady makes his first Premier League appearance since December, having recovered from a knee injury.

Here we go.

Arrizabalaga | Alonso, David Luiz, Rüdiger, Azpilicueta (c) | Barkley, Jorginho, Kanté | Willian, Morata, Pedro

Burnley starting lineup (4-5-1):
