A strong away win for Burnley against Luton Town the last match, as Larsen and Foster were on target. Just what the doctor ordered, as that was the first league win after going winless in six consecutive fixtures. World class coaching! That was the thoughts of Jackson when Larsen scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 74th minute. Midfielder Cullen was the best player on the team with a rating of 8.32 (out of ten) in that game. Cullen dribled past the opponent 1 of 2 times.
Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Newcastle United (0-2).The goals haven't exactly been flowing for Burnley here at Turf Moor in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (3 from 4 games).
Chelsea form and stats

Before that, the victory at home hosting Brighton & Hove Albion in the Carabao Cup (1-0).
