Bournemouth vs Chelsea Betting Tips
Chelsea are in tremendous form right now and are the best team in the Premier League. Bet on the Blues to win this weekend.
Chelsea have a very good scoring record against the Cherries. Considering the defensive frailties of the home side, a high scoring game seems likely here. Bet on the match to produce over 2.5 goals.
Bournemouth vs Chelsea Prediction
Chelsea are firm favourites to win here. Unlike Liverpool, the Blues are far more compact at the back and Bournemouth will struggle to get past them.
Furthermore, Bournemouth’s poor defence will let them down against the likes of Hazard and Costa.
