Chelsea vs Bournemouth

Chelsea have dropped seven points from winning positions in their last four Premier League games (D2 L2), more than any other team since Boxing Day, having only dropped two points across their first 17 matches in the competition this season (W10 D5 L2).

Bournemouth extend their longest unbeaten run in the Premier League to nine matches (W5 D4), they last had a longer run in any tier in October 2021 (a run of 15 in the Championship).

Cole Palmer has been directly involved in 53 goals (36 goals, 17 assists) in his 50 Premier League starts for Chelsea, only Erling Haaland (64 for Man City) and Andrew Cole (57 for Newcastle United) have ever registered more goals and assists in their first 50 starts in the competition for one club.

Having lost consecutive Premier League games against Bournemouth in 2019, Chelsea are now unbeaten in their last six against the Cherries (W4 D2).

Bournemouth won three of their first five Premier League away games against Chelsea (L2) but have since lost their last two visits to Stamford Bridge.

Bournemouth are one of just four sides to win more away (3) Premier League games against Chelsea than they have at home (1), alongside Brentford, Burnley and Wimbledon.

After a run of five consecutive Premier League victories, Chelsea are now winless in each of their last four (D2 L2). They last had a longer run without a win in the same season between March and May 2023 (7).

Bournemouth are unbeaten in their last eight Premier League games (W5 D3). Only Liverpool (15) and Arsenal (10) are on longer current runs without defeat, while it’s the Cherries’ longest ever such run in the competition.
