The top league table Chelsea visit Vitality Stadium to face AFC Bournemouth to continue their good run in the Premier League campaign this April 8, 2017. Indeed, Chelsea are eager to gain a maximum point to secure their position.
Bournemouth will enter this game with two consecutive draws in their previous games. But it will be a tough game for them in this weekend despite they host their visitors in front of their home supporters.
The Cherries have been played not very well in recent weeks. They have registered 2 wins, 2 draws, and 1 loss in their last five league games. They have scored 14 goals and conceded 19 goals in the last ten league games and currently at 13th place on the log with 35 points from 31 games played this season.
We think the hosts need a miracle to happen for this game. Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe has no reason not to change his formation when his men against Chelsea this weekend. Marc Pugh, Joshua King, and Benik Afobe are expected to start the line up to seek more chances scoring in front.
Chelsea on the other hand, they continued their good form as they won 2-1 against Manchester City in their last Premier League after disappointing defeat against Crystal Palace on April 1. However, they will enter to this game highly motivated to be winners this Saturday.
The Blues still the great team in this season. They have registered 4 wins and 1 loss in their last five games in all competitions. They have scored 17 goals and conceded 9 goals in the last ten games in all competitions. They currently sit 7 points clear off the second placed Spurs from 30 games played this season.
We believed Chelsea will work harder to win this game against the hosts. N’Golo Kante, Eden Hazard, and Diego Costa are expected to start the line up to seek more chances against the hosts this weekend.
Chelsea are huge favorites in this one. (Source:www.mirror.co.uk)
