Your support makes all the difference.After Tottenham's chances of catching Chelsea were landed a serious blow at Anfield, Antonio Conte's men now have the chance to extend their lead at the top of the table as they travel to Burnley.
But victory is far from a given. Sean Dyche's men have developed an impervious reputation at home, winning 28 out of their current 29 Premier League points at Turf Moor.
Although Chelsea will be tipped as favourites to win, a shock result against the Clarets isn't beyond the realms of possibility today.
After that, Swansea and Leicester go head to head at the bottom of the league as they continue to fight for survival.
The Foxes have been dragged to the foot of the table following a miserable run of form that has seen them failure to win in league this new year.
As for the Swans, Paul Clement's men have enjoyed something of a resurgence in recent weeks but remain dangerously close to the relegation zone with just one point separating them from the bottom three.

A defensive mistake from Mee gives Costa possession in a dangerous area. The 28-year-old Chelsea lad steals the ball and charges towards the goal, but his final strike is blocked by a Claret shirt.
The Burnley defender escaped a nightmare there.

The ball goes over the top and finds Gray, but his cross into the box is intercepted by a well positioned Luiz. If the Brazilian defender had not made that block, Barnes was lurking at the front post to receive the ball - top defending.
59 MINS
Moses whips the ball into the box, but once again it fails to find a Chelsea shirt. The deliveries are relentlessly going into the Burnley box, but the home side are coming out on top every time. Conte's men need to find an alternative approach.
61 MINS
Azpilicueta goes for goal from distance and it's a prolific strike that glides just wide of the post. It's that kind of chance that could catch Heaton off guard.
67 MINS
Costa picks up the ball on the half-way line and attempts to thread a neat ball through to Pedro. It's a well struck pass, but it's intercepted by Ward to bring an end to the attack.
Substitution: Matic is replaced by Fabregas.
69 MINS
Westwood gives the ball away to Hazard and he chases after the Chelsea in an attempt to redeem his error. However, it's a clumsy challenge and he gives away an unnecessary free-kick.
Yellow card: Westwood
70 MINS
Fabregas sends the set piece into the box, but Keane comes out on top and he heads the ball away from danger. Chelsea are yet to look threatening from a set piece.
