Before Betting On Chelsea vs Bournemouth
It has been a challenging first season at Stamford Bridge for Mauricio Pochettino, but the coach will be delighted in the manner of which his side has performed in the second half of the season. Only the top three teams have picked up more points since February, and the Blues come into this final round after winning four on the bounce.
Chelsea were excellent once again in midweek, as they secured a 2-1 victory on the road at Brighton. A pleasing sign for the Blues would have been the fact that Christopher Nkunku was among the scorers in midweek after enduring a miserable campaign with injury issues following his move from RB Leipzig.
Bournemouth were tipped up by many to suffer relegation this term, but they have responded excellently following a slow start to the season. The Cherries are on the verge of achieving a top half finish in the standings, but they will need to claim victory on the final day to stand any chance of achieving that feat. However, they come into this match on the road after losing their last two.
Chelsea are unbeaten in their last four matches against Bournemouth, with their latest defeat being suffered at Stamford Bridge in December 2019. Chelsea have won two of the last three, but the previous meeting this term saw the points shared following a 0-0 draw at the Vitality Stadium.
