Recent form points different ways
Chelsea have won two, drawn one and lost two of their last five recent matches, the most recent a 0-3 defeat. Bournemouth have won two, drawn two and lost one of their last five, losing 0-1 in their most recent outing. The market implies a 57.1 per cent chance of a Chelsea win, 22.7 per cent for a draw and 20.2 per cent for a Bournemouth victory.
A win would lift Chelsea to ten points from six matches. A draw would leave them on eight; defeat keeps them on seven. Bournemouth would reach six points from six with a win, four with a draw, and remain on three if they lose.
Draws define the head-to-head
The last five meetings have produced 12 goals and a remarkable pattern: three draws, including the two most recent, both finishing 2-2. Chelsea won the other two, 1-0 and 2-1. Neither side has managed consecutive wins in this fixture across those five encounters, and Bournemouth have not won any of them.
