Chelsea vs Bournemouth Betting Odds, Tips, Predictions, Preview 30th December 2025

Despite their unconvincing form, Chelsea stand a good chance of adding three more points to their account in round 19. They face Bournemouth on Tuesday, and they'll be disappointed to miss out on a win at Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea are placed fiveth with 29 points after 18 matches. Bournemouth occupy a position as 15th in the league on 22 points.

With both Chelsea and Bournemouth coming off disappointing defeats in their previous outing, we could be in for a cautious battle. Both will be eager to get back to winning ways sooner rather than later.

Chelsea only average a modest 1.4 goals per game in their last ten matches in this tournament, in which they scored 14 goals. They also conceded ten for an average of one per game. They kept their opponents from scoring five times.

Bournemouth scored 13 goals, conceded 22 and managed two clean sheets in their previous ten matches.

Betting on the draw would have earned you a sound profit the last time Chelsea played Bournemouth. The pair finished even in a 0-0 match, where no one managed to get the upper hand.
