Chelsea achieved a comfortable 2-0 win against Burnley on Saturday, with Pedro Neto and Enzo Fernandez scoring the crucial goals. This victory propels Chelsea to second place in the Premier League standings, narrowing the gap to league leaders Arsenal to just three points. The team demonstrated resilience, overcoming an initial disjointed performance to secure their third consecutive league win.

The Blues took the lead in the 37th minute through Pedro Neto's precise header, an advantage they never relinquished. Despite Burnley's efforts in the second half, Chelsea's defense remained solid, and Enzo Fernandez sealed the win with a late goal. This marked a strong performance, especially considering key midfielder Moises Caicedo was rested.

With this win, Chelsea continues to build momentum, having won five of their last six Premier League matches. Burnley, meanwhile, suffered their third consecutive defeat, remaining in a precarious position in the league table. The result signals Chelsea's growing form as they approach challenging fixtures against European giants.
