TEAM NEWS: Fabregas benched again for Chelsea

Cesc Fabregas again finds himself on the bench as Chelsea welcome Burnley to Stamford Bridge.

The midfielder has yet to start a Premier League game under Antonio Conte, with Nemanja Matic and Oscar preferred on Saturday.

It marks a disappointing week for Fabregas, who was also ommitted from new Spain head coach Julen Lopetegui's first Spain squad.

Chelsea starting XI: Courtois; Ivanovic, Cahill, Terry, Azpilicueta; Kante; Willian, Oscar, Matic, Hazard; Diego Costa
Subs: Begovic, Aina, Fabregas, Loftus-Cheek, Moses, Pedro, Batshuayi

Burnley starting XI: Heaton, Ward, Mee, Keane, Lowton, Arfield, Marney, Defour, Boyd, Vokes, Gray
Subs: O’Neill, Darikwa, Tarkowski, Gudmundsson, Robinson, Kightly, Jutkiewicz
