Chelsea vs AFC Bournemouth Predictions
Chelsea’s defensive record makes their short price hard to trust
Chelsea are 1.70 favourites at home, despite failing to win any of their last three Premier League games. They lost 2-1 at Arsenal, drew 2-2 with Hull at Stamford Bridge and then fell 3-0 at Brentford before the international break.
No Premier League side has conceded more than Chelsea’s 12 goals this season. That record makes their price difficult to accept against visitors who have lost only to Manchester City and Liverpool.
Bournemouth have yet to record a league win under new manager Marco Rose, though their opening fixtures have been demanding. Draws with Everton, Newcastle and Brentford show how often they have stayed in contention. Late goals conceded have also cost them points. Chelsea could be their least imposing opponents so far.
Chelsea’s three-game winless run makes Bournemouth double chance appealing at 2.05.
Tip: Bournemouth double chance @ with N/A
Goals have been a regular feature of Chelsea’s matches
Chelsea have scored 10 goals in five Premier League fixtures, the joint-third highest total in the division, while conceding a league-high 12. Both teams have scored and the match has produced more than 2.5 goals in four of their five league games.
Their 2-2 home draw with Hull followed that pattern. Chelsea’s 6-3 home win over Leeds in the third round of the EFL Cup brought another high-scoring result at Stamford Bridge.
Bournemouth have conceded in every league match, and both teams have scored in four of their five. They are still seeking a first win, while Chelsea need to end a three-match winless spell. Chelsea’s four qualifying league games in five are enough for me to back both teams to score and over 2.5 goals at 1.73.
Tip: Both teams to score and over 2.5 goals @ with N/A
