Despite losing star striker Dominic Solanke in the summer, Bournemouth have enjoyed an unbeaten start to the Premier League season. Following two draws, Andoni Iraola’s side produced a stunning late comeback to secure a 3-2 win over Everton. Winger Antoine Semenyo was superb in that game and will now look to give the Chelsea defenders an equally tough time. 

After a busy summer for Chelsea with plenty of departures and arrivals, the Blues have blown hot and cold. They were at their destructive best when beating Wolves 6-2, but lost to Man City and drew with Crystal Palace. Enzo Maresca may well choose to make some changes and there could be a debut for loanee Jadon Sancho. 

Team news in full: 

Chelsea XI: Sanchez; Disasi, W Fofana, Colwill, Cucurella; Caicedo, Veiga; Madueke, Palmer, Neto; Jackson

Subs: Jorgensen, Tosin, Badiashile, Casadei, Felix, Mudryk, Nkunku, Sancho, Guiu

Bournemouth XI: Travers, Smith, Senesi, Zabarnyi, Kerkez, Cook, Christie, Tavernier, Kluivert, Semenyo, Evanilson

Subs: Dennis, Huijsen, Brooks, Scott, Sinisterra, Araujo, Hill, Enus Unal, Philip
