Follow live coverage as Bournemouth face Chelsea in the Premier League today.

Frank Lampard recalled Benoit Badiashile, Trevoh Chalobah, Conor Gallagher, Mykhailo Mudryk and Kai Havertz for his 100th game in Premier League management as Chelsea visited Bournemouth.

The Blues boss, who has lost six games in a row since returning to Stamford Bridge, dropped Cesar Azpilicueta, Mateo Kovacic and Raheem Sterling to his bench, while Wesley Fofana and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang were absent following Tuesday evening’s 3-1 defeat at Arsenal.

Cherries boss Gary O’Neil stuck with the starting XI which began last weekend’s 4-1 thrashing of Leeds. The south-coast club began the day level on 39 points with Chelsea thanks to six wins from their last nine games.

AFC Bournemouth vs Chelsea

Bournemouth have conceded 16 goals in the last 15 minutes of the second half this season, more than any other side in the Premier League. The Cherries deserve credit for their recent uptick in form, but they could still do better at seeing games out.
