Chelsea aim to recover from a disappointing 3-0 defeat to Brentford when they welcome Bournemouth to Stamford Bridge. The Blues have some selection worries, with key striker Joao Pedro ruled out and Cole Palmer doubtful after pulling out of the England squad. Moises Caicedo is expected to recover in time, while Reece James remains unlikely to feature. Chelsea have been formidable at home lately, winning five of their last six matches and scoring an impressive 3.33 goals per game across that run.
Bournemouth, meanwhile, are looking to climb away from danger after a mixed start to the campaign. Alex Scott made his England debut in the 7-0 demolition of Croatia, although he has since withdrawn from international duty with a thigh injury. Scott has joined the likes of Adli, Kroupi Jr, Kluivert, Araujo and Milosavljevic in the recovery room, leaving Marco Rose with limited options. Bournemouth have conceded 1.80 goals per game across their last five away matches, while both teams have scored in each of those fixtures.
Chelsea are a real force to be reckoned with at home and with Bournemouth key midfielder Alex Scott missing out with injury, Home Win should be considered. Over 1.5 and 2.5 goals bets should also seem temping as the Blues average 3.33 goals per game across their last six home matches.
This Premier League match will be played on Saturday 10 October 2026 at 15:00.
