Chelsea meets Bournemouth at Stamford Bridge in the mid-week EPL round. The Blues need a win to stay in the Champions League zone, yet the Cherries are seventh only three points behind.
Chelsea News
The Blues are one of the most interesting teams to watch this year. However, over the past few weeks, they haven’t been playing as before, and their performances have dropped significantly. Maresca’s boys haven’t won for the previous four meetings in a row, which decreased their title chances to theory.
This team usually wins when playing at Stamford, as that outcome has occurred seven times. Meanwhile, eight of the previous ten appearances here ended with over 2.5 goals.
Bournemouth News
The Cherries are ridiculously good this season, and it’s no wonder they’re sitting one win behind the fourth spot in the EPL standings. This team is highly efficient on offense, with Justin Kluivert with six goals and Antoine Semenyo with one more leading the way.
Bournemouth didn’t lose in the previous eight EPL games and one FA Cup contest. Yet what’s noticeable is that their away games bring plenty of goals. The last five saw three or more hits, while just one didn’t end with both teams netting.

Chelsea vs. Bournemouth Betting Prediction
Chelsea is in a problem, as it hasn’t won a Premier League game for a long time. They have to attack right away. Meanwhile, Bournemouth’s away games have been very efficient. The way the home team plays this one should be as well. That’s why we pick over 1.5 goals in the second half.
