How Chelsea's draw with Burnley has affected the Premier League top-four race

You could be forgiven for thinking the sides chasing Champions League football next season would prefer a go at the Europa League.

All four contenders were in action this weekend, and all four fluffed their lines big time.

The only side to come way with anything were Chelsea - and they are sure to be ticked off that they could only draw 2-2 at home to Burnley.

Firstly, Tottenham suffered a 1-0 defeat to title hunters Manchester City on Saturday as Phil Foden netted the only goal of the game.

Then on Sunday, both Arsenal and Manchester United had days to forget as they lost to Crystal Palace and Everton respectively.

That allowed Chelsea to jump back into the top four with their point - but this race has got a long way to run.
