CHELSEA VS BOURNEMOUTH PREDICTION 27.12.2022

Competition: Premier League

• Date: 27.12.2022

• Kickoff: 17:30 UTC / 18:30 CET

• Venue: Stamford Bridge (London)

If any team benefited from the fact that there was a break from competing in the Premier League, it is - Chelsea. The club from London lost the last 3 matches against Arsenal, Newcastle and Brighton and thus slipped to the 8th place in the table. It is clear that there is nothing from the Champions League next season and that "Blues" will have to do a little more rebuilding. The match against Bournemouth is a good chance for Chelsea to get the much-needed 3 points.

Bournemouth is currently in the safe zone, which is the main goal of this team in terms of the final result at the end of the season. However, it is still not certain enough because Bournemouth has only 3 points more than Nottingham which is in 18th place. Bournemouth has conceded 24 goals away from home this season and that is one of the most pressing problems for this club.

Chelsea vs Bournemouth pick: CHELSEA TO COVER AH -1

Chelsea is still a very high-quality and more expensive team than Bournemouth. Although they have a slightly higher number of injured players, the team with Sterling, Mount, Koulibaly, and Jorginho should achieve dominance in the middle of the field and get chances to score goals. Bournemouth will be strictly defensive in this match and we expect somewhat more careful tactics. Our recommendation for this match is for Chelsea to win good soccer tips, but a win with AH is also a good pick here.
