Week 25 of the English Premier League sees Leicester plunge deeper into crisis, Chelsea held at Burnley, and Spurs failing to capitalise.
Chelsea has now drawn two and lost one of their past six Premier League games. It’s hardly the form of a team flying along with a broken wing, but it as allowed the chasing pack the opportunity to close the gap; an opportunity that none of has taken.
Chelsea didn’t register a single shot on target in the second half against Burnley – that’s how good Sean Dyche’s men were in their 1-1 draw. Match of the Day pundit, Martin Keown, even put Dyche up there with Conte as the ‘two best managers in the Premier League.’
It was a difficult day for the champions-to-be. Only Chelsea and Spurs have better home records than Burnley. It snowed, it blustered, and the coddled stars of Chelsea complained about the state of the pitch. But despite that Pedro opened the scoring in the seventh minute with his sixth Premier League goal of the season. It was the first time Burnley had conceded at home in five games.
