Latest football match prediction: Bournemouth vs Chelsea
Chelsea's off-field activities have attracted more attention than their on-field performances this season. With the transfer window now closed, new manager Enzo Maresca can fully focus on the job for the next few months.
Chelsea had a fairly positive start to the season with two consecutive wins against Servette and Wolverhampton Wanderers, including a 6-0 victory over Wolves. However, they suffered a disappointing defeat in the second leg of their Europa Conference League qualifying match against the Swiss side. Despite making changes to the lineup against Crystal Palace, Chelsea were held to a 1-1 draw, with Eberechi Eze equalizing after Nicolas Jackson had opened the scoring.
With one win, one draw, and one loss, Chelsea currently sit 11th in the Premier League table, just three places and one point behind their next opponents. Chelsea's defensive record hasn't improved, with 17 consecutive away games failing to keep a clean sheet.
Bournemouth, after a disappointing defeat to Arsenal in March 2023, staged a dramatic comeback at Goodison Park, winning 3-2 against Everton thanks to late goals from Antoine Semenyo, Lewis Cook and Luis Sinisterra. Bournemouth are currently eighth in the table and unbeaten this season, although they have never gone four consecutive matches unbeaten in a Premier League season.
Bournemouth haven't beaten Chelsea in the Premier League since December 2019, losing three of their last five matches despite a 0-0 draw at Vitality Stadium last season. Given Chelsea's poor defensive form away from home, Bournemouth could exploit this weakness. However, the two-week break could give Chelsea an advantage, and with Maresca's diverse attacking options, they are capable of scoring at least two goals to secure a win against Bournemouth.
