[Teams] Chelsea vs Burnley: Confirmed Line-Ups

Chelsea will begin the defence of their Premier League title when they take on Burnley at Stamford Bridge this afternoon.

Antonio Conte hands a full debut to Jeremie Boga as the youngster starts in attack along with Willian while Michy Batshuayi leads the line up front with Alvaro Morata deemed only fit enough for the bench.
