Chelsea seem to have adopted Maurizio Sarri his methodology and are looking a different and confident group of lads under the Italian. With a display of 81% possession in the last game, Chelsea made their intentions clear. They are not going to sit back this season and will fight for glory.
AFC Bournemouth are on a roll as well with two wins and a draw in their three matches and would give their 100% not to lose against the Blues.
When and Where?
Location : Stamford Bridge
Time: Saturday at 3:00pm BST.
What to expect!
Chelsea seem to be favorite but don’t forget that the Cherries secure a 3-0 win last time and created a huge upset. And with the performance they’ve been putting, they surely won’t be easy to beat.
Maurizio Sarri’s does look revitalised and are now making noises to clinch the trophy again after the dismaying performance of last season– and will be the favorites to win this Saturday.
Team news
Cesc Fabregas is still a doubtful pick and yet to return from injury but what will be tough for Sarri is to make a choice between Ross Barkley and Mateo Kovacic in the midfield alongside Kante and Jorginho. Considering last match’s performance of the Croatian it is likely that he will be the one accompanying the Frenchman and the Italian in the midfield.
Junior Stanislas, Marc Pugh and Lys Mousset will not feature for the Bournemouth.
Possible starting line-ups
Chelsea XI: Kepa(Gk), Azpilicueta, Rudiger, Luiz, Alonso, Kante, Jorginho, Koavcic, Pedro, Morata, Hazard
Bournemouth XI: Begovic(Gk), A. Smith, S. Cook, Ake, Daniels, Brooks, Surman, Gosling, Fraser, Wilson, King
Will Chelsea come up with another win or are we up for a surprise?
