Statistics for Bournemouth vs Chelsea Prediction

Team news Bournemouth

• Injuries: Bournemouth will be without a few key players due to injuries. Philip Billing is sidelined with a back injury, Tyler Adams is also out with a back problem, and Enes Ünal remains unavailable as he continues to recover from a broken toe.
• Key players likely to miss: Although former Chelsea player Kepa Arrizabalaga performed well in his first Premier League game, Mark Travers will likely start in goal. Travers has been on the bench for Bournemouth’s last four games, and with the match against Chelsea – Kepa’s parent club, where he is currently on loan – this seems a probable scenario.
• Key players to watch: Young defender Dean Huijsen is one to keep an eye on, having made a notable impact recently, including scoring a goal for his country’s U21 team during the international break. Other key players include Antoine Semenyo, who has scored 2 goals so far this season, and Marcus Tavernier, both expected to be threats in Bournemouth’s attack as they push for goals in this game.

Chelsea’s team news

• Injuries: Chelsea is dealing with several injury concerns, with several players unavailable for selection. This includes Malo Gusto (hamstring), Omari Kellyman (hamstring), Armando Broja (Achilles tendon), Roméo Lavia (hamstring), and Reece James (hamstring).
• Key players to watch: Noni Madueke, Nicolas Jackson, and Cole Palmer are currently in top form and are expected to be major threats to Bournemouth’s defense as Chelsea looks to secure points in this away fixture. New signing João Félix, who has already scored one goal, is likely to feature in his third Premier League match for the Blues. Additionally, Jadon Sancho may either start or get some minutes as a substitute in this match.
