In a tense Premier League match at Stamford Bridge, Chelsea battled Burnley in a thrilling encounter that ended in a 2-2 draw. The score was 1-0 in Chelsea's favour at half-time, but Burnley managed to get back into the game in the second half. The match started very stormy, with players from both teams being shown several yellow cards. In the 16th minute Burnley's L. Assignon received a yellow card, and in the 35th minute Chelsea's M. Cucurella received a yellow card. In the 40th minute, Assignon received a red card and Burnley were left with ten men. Just three minutes later V. Kompany also received a red card, which further complicated the situation for Burnley.

In the 44th minute Chelsea were awarded a penalty, which was realised by K. Palmer, and the home side took the lead at half-time. However, Burnley took the lead in the second half and equalised in the 47th minute thanks to a goal from J. Cullen. Chelsea regained the lead in the 78th minute when K. Palmer scored his second goal of the match. But Burnley didn't give up and managed to equalise in the 81st minute thanks to a goal from D. O'Shea. The match ended with both teams sharing the points, with Chelsea failing to capitalise on their opportunities to win.
