3 things that went right for Chelsea against Burnley

Burnley v Chelsea - Premier League
A tight affair!

#1 Squad rotation

Burnley v Chelsea - Premier League
A crucial victory!

Conte decided to shake things up and handed starts to Antonio Rudiger, Palmieri, Tiemoue Bakayoko, Pedro and Giroud. This was largely due to their involvement in the FA Cup semi-final affair against Southampton on Sunday.

His rotation worked beautifully and even without the chief creators Eden Hazard, Willian and Fabregas, Chelsea did not fail to create chances. They troubled the Burnley defence continuously.

A win was absolutely necessary and the result took them to 5 points behind Tottenham and keep their hopes of a top-four finish alive.
