Chelsea, after a disappointing loss to Aston Villa where they conceded a second-half comeback after leading 1-0 at halftime, currently sit fifth in the league with a record of 8 wins, 5 draws, and 5 losses. They now trail league leaders Arsenal by a significant 13 points and will be looking to avoid complacency in their home match. Bournemouth, despite squad changes this season, are mid-table with 5 wins, 7 draws, and 6 losses. Their tendency to draw games is something they need to address. Their away record shows 1 win, 3 draws, and 5 losses, with 16 goals scored and 27 conceded, highlighting defensive vulnerabilities. Chelsea's recent form shows signs of improvement, with 4 wins, 3 draws, and 3 losses in their last 10 matches. They have scored in their last 5 league games, indicating a consistent attacking threat, ranking fourth in the league in terms of goals scored. Cole Palmer, with 15 goals and 8 assists, is a key player, supported by Joe Pedro, who has scored 6 goals. Defensively, Chelsea is ranked fifth, having conceded only 19 goals in 16 matches. However, they have shown a tendency to lose focus after taking the lead. They are also dealing with injuries to key players like Levi Colwill and Dario Essugo, and Mykhailo Mudryk is suspended, impacting squad depth.
