Chelsea looking to equal Premier League defensive record versus Burnley

Chelsea will hope to equal a Premier League defensive record when they go up against Burnley on Saturday afternoon.

The Blues have conceded just three goals during their opening 10 fixtures in the top flight, the last three games ending with a clean sheet.

On the back of seven shutouts, Thomas Tuchel's side will be looking to become the third team to concede just three goals after 11 matches at the weekend.

Chelsea were the last time to prove so imposing at the back, Jose Mourinho's 2004-05 team proving almost impenetrable at the start of that campaign.

Manchester United were equally dominant in defence at the beginning of 1991-92 under Sir Alex Ferguson.

The West Londoners face opponents in Burnley who have put together a six-match winless streak in away league games.
