That mindset has resulted in back-to-back victories for Mauricio Pochettino's side. The first came at home to Brighton in the Carabao Cup, the second was on Monday night away at west London neighbours Fulham.

Momentum has been generated. The hope is it can be used to our advantage at Turf Moor, especially given an international break follows the Premier League fixture.

Colwill explains: ‘We’ve played well in the majority of games we’ve played so far this season. So to go [to Fulham] and get what we deserved was a good sign.

'We’ve got to build from that, we can’t take it for granted. We have to go to Burnley with the same confidence, aggression and desire to get the win.

‘Every game in the Prem is tough, especially for us with the pressure from outside the club. We’ve got to blur that out, go there and play like Chelsea.'

During the opening weeks of the campaign, strong performances were not translating into results. That has changed over the past ten days but Conor Gallagher, who has captained the side in the absence of Reece James and Ben Chilwell, believes more is to come.

'It [the victories] are really important, but we’re going to continue to work hard and improve our performances still,' he says. 'There is a long way to go still to reach our standard.'

That ambition has been made easier by the return of Armando Broja. The Albania international returned to action against Aston Villa after ten months out and struck his first goal of the season against Fulham.

Broja started at Craven Cottage in the absence of Nicolas Jackson, who missed the game due to suspension. But with both now contention, there is a decision for Pochettino and his staff to make.

'They are both great strikers and to have that battle day in, day out for the starting position is going to be good for them,' says Colwill.

'They are both going to learn and when they come in the pitch the have to take their chances.’
