Chelsea could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Premier League game only four sleeps ago. That game, against Arsenal, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Chelsea.

Chelsea form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Chelsea so far with only 16 points returning home. The records show 4-4-8 (win-draw-lose). With the Chelsea losing streak of four defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking.

There might be some fixture complaints from Chelsea as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous match, 1-3 against Arsenal. It is not a good sign for Chelsea that their goalie Arrizabalaga made six saves in the Arsenal match, but still couldn't save them from a beating. Silva, who plays in defense, got the "man of the match" on his team with the rating 7.82. Silva won 6 of 6 duels.

The game before that, was lost at home, a 0-2 defeat against Brentford.

A tale of few goals? 16 of this side's latest 21 league rounds have had zero, one or two goals.

The visitors have scored 14 goals from 16 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. Chelsea have conceded 22 goals in these away matches.

Head 2 Head

Chelsea - AFC Bournemouth 2-0 was the scoreline in these teams' last head to head game, earlier this season.
