Chelsea will travel to the Vitality Stadium looking to regain some consistency as the Premier League resumes after the international break.
Enzo Maresca’s side have displayed mixed form so far this season after a tumultuous summer of transfers. After a 2-0 defeat in their opening game against Manchester City, they bounced back with a thumping 6-2 win over Wolves, before being held to a 1-1 draw by Crystal Palace.
Bournemouth, on the other hand, have had a good start to the season, remaining unbeaten with two draws and one win. After a 1-1 draw at Nottingham Forest on the opening weekend, they picked up the same result against Newcastle at home.
Andoni Iraola’s side then staged a dramatic late comeback, overturning a two-goal deficit to beat Everton 3-2 at Goodison Park.

Bournemouth vs Chelsea Lineups, 11 expected starters, team news
Enes Unal And Tyler Adams are not yet ready to return for Bournemouth, but Philip Billing could be back after playing just six minutes this season.
Andoni Iraola could consider making some changes from the dramatic win at Everton after saying he felt his side did not deserve their 3-2 victory. Luis Sinisterra could come on after scoring the winner from the bench at Goodison Park, while Adam Smith could start at right-back in place of new recruit Julian Araujowho played for Mexico during the international break.
Predicted XI for Bournemouth (4-2-3-1, right to left): Kepa (GK) — Smith, Zabarnyi, Senesi, Kerkez — Cook, Billing — Semenyo, Kluivert, Sinisterra — Evanilson.
Hurt: Enes Unal, Tyler Adams
Suspended: None
Chelsea could be without two right-backs Reece James And Bad tasteso Maresca could be forced to settle for a makeshift defence. Mykhailo Mudryk replaced Gusto against Crystal Palace, but it seems more likely that one of Tosin Adarabioyo Or Axel Disasi will come.
Jadon Sancho hopes to make his debut, probably from the left wing, while Christophe Nkunku could start if Cole Palmer is not fully fit.
Romeo Lavia is also an injury doubt, so the regular duo of Moses Caicedo And Enzo Fernandez should start despite long travel times during the international break.
Chelsea’s predicted XI (4-2-3-1, right to left): Sanchez (GK) — Adarabioyo, Fofana, Colwill, Cucurella — Caicedo, Fernandez — Madueke, Nkunku, Sancho — Jackson.
Hurt: Reece James, Romeo Lavia (doubt), Cole Palmer (doubt), Malo Gusto
Suspended: None
Bournemouth vs Chelsea Prediction
Chelsea’s away games often end in goals conceded, and they are unlikely to keep a clean sheet against an attacking Bournemouth side, despite the international break potentially disrupting Iraola’s side’s momentum.
But the two-week break may have worked in Chelsea’s favour, giving Maresca’s side a chance to regroup. With a strong array of talented attackers, they should be able to breach Bournemouth’s youthful defence at least twice and secure a win.
Prediction: Bournemouth 2-4 Chelsea
