Matic Gets 4! Chelsea Player Ratings In The 1-1 Draw Against Burnley

Turf Moor has never been an easy place to travel to in the Premier League as Antonio Conte learned this weekend when his Chelsea side managed to take just a point from their game against Burnley. The Blues had a chance to open up a 12 point gap at the top of the table after Tottenham Hotspur dropped all three points at Anfield earlier this week. Spanish winger gave Chelsea the lead in the 7th minute of the game. However, the homes side were determined and came back into the game, thanks to a sublime free-kick from Robby Brady in the 24th minute. The blues dominated most part of the game but Burnley created the better chances on the night, as both sides will have to settle for a point. Chelsea are still 10 points clear at the top of the table, and here are the player ratings for the Blues in this game:

Thibaut Courtois (8):

A match-saving display from the Belgian who made a couple of outstanding saves to give his side a point from this trip to Burnley.

Cesar Azpilicueta (6):

Found it hard to deal with Burnley’s attacking threat on the night but stuck to his task well to keep them away from scoring more than a goal.

David Luiz (5):

Not a game to remember for the Brazilian who picked up a booking and was caught out of position on more than one occasion.

Gary Cahill (7):

Stuck to his task well at the back as he kept Burnley away from the goal till the final whistle keeping them away even under extreme pressure.

Victor Moses (7):

Back to his best after a dull couple of games as he was a constant threat for Burnley after setting up the opening goal for Pedro with a blistering run.

N Golo Kante (7):

Yet another energetic performance from the winger who kept the hosts honest all night long, covering loads of ground at the Turf Moor.

Nemanja Matic (4):

Was arguably the weakest link for Chelsea as he failed to provide any cover for the back four. Was, however, decent going forward.

Marcos Alonso (6):

Tried his best to get beyond the Burnley defense but had no real joy, on a predictable night for the Italian.

Pedro (6):

Gave his side an early lead but failed to capitalize on the half-chances, slowly fading away as the match progressed.

Eden Hazard (6):

Put in a decent performance for his side, creating a couple of chances but could not do enough to take all three points from this game.

Diego Costa (6):

Was his usual angry self up ahead for Chelsea but failed to take his chances, leaving his side with just a point from this game.

Subs:

Cesc Fabregas (6):

Brought on to try and break Burnley but could not do so in the 20 minutes he got on the field.

Willian (6):

Another attacking substitute that failed, as Conte looked to go for the kill late in the game.

Michy Batshuayi (6):

Came into the game too late to have any kind of an effect.
