Burnley defender Keane: We can beat Chelsea!

Burnley defender Michael Keane is confident that the Clarets can get the best of table-toppers Chelsea at their home ground.

The Blues, who currently have a nine-point lead at the summit, will travel to Turf Moor on Sunday.

Sean Dyche's Clarets boast of one of the best home records this season having claimed 28 out of their 29 points at their home ground.

"We believe we can beat Chelsea," said Keane.

"Our home form has been unbelievable. They are in for a tough game.

"They have a lot of great players in good form. It will be tough but when we are at home in front of our own fans we have that belief we can beat anyone. We showed that against Liverpool.

"The fans are brilliant at Turf Moor, they always stick behind us, never on our backs and are really positive. That feeds into the players.

"Every time we play at home we feel we are going to win, no matter who it is against. That just comes with games and more wins."
