Chelsea is all set to resume back to winning ways in the Premier League they have a face-off with a degrading Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium on Wednesday night.
Wednesday will mark the 15th meeting between the two out of which Chelsea have won 11 of the previous 14, while there has never been a draw between the two teams. Chelsea has to come back to winning ways following the defeat at Arsenal. Indeed, from being comfortable in the top four, Chelsea is now facing pressure from the teams behind them. Sarri’s side currently holds fourth as things stand, but they are just three points clear of fifth-placed Arsenal, who are now level on points with sixth-placed Manchester United.
Chelsea have won three and lost three of their last six matches. With the current form of Bournemouth, it is expected to be a stern face-off and Sarri will be hoping that his team can build on enough potential to face Sheffield Wednesday and Tottenham when they return to league action.
Probable Line-up:
Bournemouth: Boruc; Clyne, Cook, Ake, Smith; Fraser, Lerma, Gosling, Brooks; Wilson, King.
Chelsea: Kepa; Azpilicueta, Luiz, Rudiger, Emerson; Jorginho, Kante, Kovacic; Hazard, Higuain, Willian.
