Chelsea head to the Vitality Stadium searching for consistency as the Premier League resumes following the international break.
Enzo Maresca’s side have blown hot and cold so far this campaign after a summer of transfer chaos off the pitch.
Jadon Sancho is the latest arrival for Maresca to integrate into his Chelsea squad, who made it through to the Europa Conference League league stage.
Meanwhile, Bournemouth remain unbeaten after two draws and a win to begin with in the league.
The Cherries – who lost star striker Dominic Solanke to Tottenham in a £65million deal – drew 1-1 at Nottingham Forest on the opening weekend before holding Newcastle by the same scoreline at home.
Andoni Iraola’s men then produced an extraordinary late comeback to beat Everton 3-2 at Goodison Park, having been two goals down going into the final minutes.
