'Tough': Ben Foster shares who he thinks will win on Saturday - Burnley or Chelsea

Ben Foster has made his prediction ahead of Burnley’s game at home to Chelsea this Saturday afternoon.

Burnley and Chelsea lock horns this weekend for a Premier League fixture, which is the final game before this month’s international break.

Vincent Kompany’s Burnley side go into Saturday fresh off their first league win of the season against Luton Town.

Meanwhile, Mauricio Pochettino’s Chelsea team are on a two-game winning streak across all competitions. This included their 2-0 league win away to Fulham on Monday night.

Retired goalkeeper Ben Foster is predicting a close away win when Chelsea travel to Turf Moor in a couple of days time.

“This is a tough one. I’ll say Chelsea (win), just. This isn’t a straightforward game,” Foster said on the That’s Football YouTube channel.

Chelsea have seven wins and two draws in their previous nine matches against Burnley.

On paper, this looks like a great way for the Blues to sign out before the internationals. However, this fragile Blues group still has a long way to go before the fanbase have strong confidence going into a game like Saturday.

We’ve seen in the opening weeks of the season that Burnley are vulnerable defensively, average two goals against them per game so far.

Chelsea may have had their own problems in front of goal when it comes to scoring, but there’s fresh optimism that the likes of Armando Broja, Nicolas Jackson and Mykhailo Mudrk have all scored in their most recent outings.
