Mansion Sports – The final international break of 2025 has concluded, and Premier League fans can once again look forward to an intense weekend of competition. Burnley and Chelsea will reopen the league’s atmosphere of rivalry with an engaging matchup at Turf Moor.

The match is scheduled to take place at Turf Moor, Burnley, on Saturday, 22 November 2025 at 12:30 local time.

Burnley aim to recover from back-to-back defeats, while Chelsea arrive seeking a third consecutive league victory.

Below is Mansion Sports’ projected lineup for Burnley vs Chelsea in November 2025.

Team Conditions Ahead of the Match

Burnley

Burnley, once regarded as a defensively resilient Championship side, have struggled significantly at the back in this Premier League campaign. 

Under Scott Parker, the club enter matchweek 12 with the league’s third-worst defensive record, conceding fewer goals only than Wolverhampton Wanderers and West Ham United.

Across their last three fixtures, Burnley have allowed seven goals. After a narrow win over Wolves, they were outplayed by Arsenal and then suffered a painful 3–2 defeat to West Ham. Their position outside the relegation zone is currently maintained only by goal difference.

Burnley’s home record against Chelsea is also concerning. They have lost their last six home meetings with the Blues, including a 4–1 defeat in October 2023. 

Still, a 2–2 draw at Stamford Bridge in the same season offers a small measure of encouragement.

Chelsea

Chelsea return from the international break carrying strong momentum. Enzo Maresca’s side delivered a dominant performance in their 3–0 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers on 8 November, with contributions from João Pedro, Malo Gusto, and Pedro Neto.

Despite an inconsistent start to the season, Chelsea now sit third in the table with 20 points, trailing only Arsenal and Manchester City.

Should their local rivals Tottenham Hotspur claim victory in the North London derby this weekend, Chelsea could move even closer to the league leaders.

Recent trends also favour them. The Blues have won their last seven Premier League matches played at 12:30 p.m. in the UK. 

Furthermore, they have secured two consecutive clean-sheet away wins—something they have not achieved three times in a row since 2021.

Predicted Lineups for Burnley vs Chelsea, November 2025

Burnley (4-2-3-1)

Burnley will be without Armando Broja due to injury, removing one of their attacking options. They also remain without Jordan Beyer, Zeki Amdouni, and Connor Roberts until 2026.

However, Lesley Ugochukwu is available to face his former club, and in-form Zian Flemming is expected to lead the frontline.

Burnley Lineup

Chelsea (4-2-3-1)

Chelsea experienced some concern over Jamie Bynoe-Gittens’ fitness during the international break, but the player has recovered and is expected to be available.

Even so, several key names remain sidelined, including Enzo Fernández, Pedro Neto, Benoît Badiashile, Cole Palmer, Levi Colwill, Roméo Lavia, and Mykhailo Mudryk, who is currently serving a doping suspension.

Alejandro Garnacho is also on the verge of making history as the youngest South American to reach 100 Premier League appearances.
