Chelsea travel to Turf Moor to face Burnley in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon looking to claim their third successive victory in all competitions.
The Clarets, meanwhile, are also in buoyant mood after picking up their first three points of the new season in a 2-1 win at Luton Town on Tuesday.
The Clarets appeared to be heading for a share of the spoils when Elijah Adebayo netted an 84th-minute equaliser for the Hatters to cancel out Lyle Foster's first-half opener, but the visitors' lead was restored just a minute later courtesy of a stunning strike into the top corner from Jacob Bruun Larsen.
Vincent Kompany commended his side's never-say-die attitude en route to snatching three important points, and the Belgian boss will hope that their maiden win can act as a springboard for positive change in their quest to avoid the drop; the Clarets currently sit 18th in the Premier League table, level on points with both Luton and Everton just outside the relegation zone.
