Chelsea vs Bournemouth Preview
Chelsea
Enzo Maresca’s Chelsea look to end a three-game winless run in the Premier League when they return to action on Tuesday against Bournemouth.
The Blues bounced back to domestic form with a 5-0 win over Morecambe in the FA Cup on Saturday. Their coach will re-call Cole Palmer, Enzo Fernandez, and Moises Caicedo back to the starting eleven on Tuesday.
Chelsea have been dynamic in the final third this term, netting 31 from an xG of 34.20 from open play. Meanwhile, they’ve been solid defensively, conceding just 16 goals from an open play xGA of 22.11. All this bodes well for their chances against a Bournemouth side that have excelled from counter-attacks in 2024-25.
Bournemouth
Andoni Iraola’s Bournemouth have avoided defeat in their last nine domestic matches. They bid to stretch their club-record sequence at Stamford Bridge on Tuesday.
The Cherries will miss their first-choice striker against Chelsea, as Evanilson has been ruled out for two months. But Bournemouth continued to maintain their form in his absence in the FA Cup. Justin Kluivert operated through the middle and netted in a comfortable success against West Brom.
Despite their excellent attacking record, Bournemouth have scored just 18 goals from an open play xG of just 32.21. Their defensive performances, however, have been reliable, conceding18 from an xGA of 20.63.
Chelsea vs Bournemouth Prediction
- Pick: Chelsea to Win
- Odds: -159 (20Bet)
- Score prediction: Chelsea 2-1 Bournemouth
This week could be a perfect opportunity for Maresca’s side to bounce back to form. His squad looked energised in the final third against Morecambe on Saturday. Even against improved opposition, they could bounce back in league action this week.
Cole Palmer will be refreshed after a break. Bournemouth’s injury woes will catch up to them at some point. Their lack of attacking threat against Chelsea could be evident in the absence of Evanilson.
Chelsea look good value to extend their six-match unbeaten sequence against Bournemouth, and record a third straight win against their opponents.
Chelsea vs Bournemouth Prediction, Betting Tip
- Pick: Nicolas Jackson to Score
- Odds: +136 (20Bet)
Enzo’s pacey forward line could work perfectly against Andoni’s side that look to keep a high line. Therefore, Nicolas Jackson could prove to be an interesting Chelsea vs Bournemouth prediction.
Chelsea forward has scored nine goals in 18 appearances this season and averaged 3.00 shots per 90 minutes. The striker has recorded an xG of 10.46, meaning he’s narrowly underperforming in metric terms.
