Both Chelsea and Bournemouth will be seeking a result at Stamford Bridge which they hope will breathe fresh life into their stuttering Premier League campaigns.
Chelsea are still fifth in the table but Saturday’s home loss to Aston Villa has left them with just one win in their last six league matches.
Bournemouth ’s slide is even more perilous. Their 4-1 hammering at Brentford means they have picked up just four points from a possible 27 since their last victory, and they have slumped to 15th in the table.
These two sides drew 0-0 at the Vitality Stadium earlier this month and 2-2 in last season’s Stamford Bridge encounter but we think Chelsea will claim the spoils tomorrow, with our prediction being a Chelsea win with over 2.5 goals in total @ 11/10.

Form Guides
Chelsea Form Guide
If Chelsea had any realistic title hopes this season, they now look over with Enzo Maresca ’s side having fallen 13 points behind leaders Arsenal .
They are also 10 adrift of third-placed Villa following their 2-1 weekend loss but, despite their indifferent form, the Blues remain in the thick of what is shaping up to be a ferocious battle for fourth place.
The visit of Villa was only the second home match in the last seven fixtures for Chelsea and they have had a decent record at the Bridge this season so will be confident of bouncing back against the Cherries.
Joao Pedro has scored three goals in his last five matches and he is 5/1 to open the scoring tomorrow. And even if he fails to do that, you could get a second chance due to BOYLE Sports ’ Sub Swap offer , with the possibility of Liam Delap , Estevao or Jamie Gittens – who all started as subs against Villa – replacing the Brazilian and inheriting the same bet.
Bournemouth Form Guide
Bournemouth have not tasted victory since a 2-0 triumph over Nottingham Forest in October and you have to go back to August for their last – and only – away win this term, a 1-0 success at Tottenham.
That run has seen Andoni Iraola ’s team drop into the bottom six but they are actually closer in points to Chelsea (seven) than they are to West Ham and the relegation zone (nine) so there is no need to push the panic button yet.
Bournemouth also have more pressing concerns than the possibility of going down, and that is the future of sought-after forward Antoine Semenyo.
The Ghana international looks likely to leave in the next fortnight and he will be keen to go out on a high, and you can get odds of 9/4 for him to score for a fourth successive game.
