Chelsea aim to recover from a heart-breaking loss to Aston Villa and with Bournemouth suffering a dip in form, 2-1 is our predicted outcome for Tuesday’s showdown at Stamford Bridge. The Blues are eager to climb to the Champions League berth and their performance in the first half of the Villa defeat is surely giving fans a reason for optimism. Their expected goals against at home of 1.10 is yet another reason why home win should be considered. Additionally, Enzo Maresca can count on key players for the midweek clash.
The Cherries, on theo ther hand, are low on confidence following a 4-1 loss to Brentford. Bournemouth are on a nine-game winless run, with the team conceding 2.20 goals per game. Their expected goals against (away) of 1.91 means that they struggle defensively on the road. Adding to their woes, midfielder Alex Scott limped off with injury in the last league match.
With Bournemouth struggling to find their form, Home Win should definitely be considered, alongside Over 2.5 goals (53% H2H) and Cole Palmer to Score.
This Premier League match will be played on Tuesday 30 December 2025 at 19:30.
