Bournemouth vs Chelsea: Premier League Prediction Match Details
Bournemouth host Chelsea this weekend in the Premier League matchday four at the Vitality Stadium. Can the Cherries secure their first home win against the Blues since 2019?
Bournemouth Preview & Form
Bournemouth have managed to remain unbeaten since the start of the new Premier League, boasting a record of one win and two draws. The Cherries started their opening two Premier League games with a 1-1 draw against Nottingham Forest and Newcastle United. However, before the international break, they won their first three points by showing incredible and outclass form against Everton, where they were losing 2-0 after 87 minutes. However, they staged an incredible comeback to win 3-2 at Goodison Park.
Head coach Andoni Iraola will hope his side’s confidence builds on their incredible comeback victory at Goodison Park as they are in search of their first home win against Chelsea. It is worth noting that the Cherries have only kept just clean sheets across their last eight league games at the Vitality Stadium.

The Blues in their last game failed to maintain their winning streak, with the match ending in a 1-1 draw against Crystal Palace on their home soil.
