Bournemouth take on the visitors Chelsea in the round 5 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Sunday, September 17th at Vitality Stadium (Bournemouth)
Bournemouth started the season with a new coach. The Cherries are not known for their particular loyalty to their managers, quite the opposite. Scott Parker made quite an impression here, finally elevating them from the Championship and even starting the previous season in the Premier League, earning points with his team. However, he was dismissed after a series of failures, culminating in a defeat by Liverpool. Quite unexpectedly, his inexperienced successor, O'Neil, managed to keep the team in the top flight, but they parted ways with him in June, choosing Iraola instead. The Basque manager started reasonably well, with a draw against West Ham, but managed only a 2-2 draw against Brentford and a late victory over Swansea, although the latter was in the League Cup. They lost to both Liverpool and Tottenham without much of a chance.

Chelsea are currently just starting to build a new project. The Aristocrats, or rather their current owner, Bouli, are taking hits and getting accustomed to European and English football. It's costly and inefficient, but lessons are being learned gradually, with unique insights. As a result, the squad has been substantially overhauled once again, and Pochettino, who returned to London three months ago, is actively giving young players a chance. However, their performance is currently low: the Blues have only defeated Luton and Wimbledon, and their 1-1 draw with Liverpool can be considered positive. But a 1-3 loss to West Ham and a 0-1 defeat to Nottingham Forest show that achieving their goal is still a long way off.
Chelsea welcomed the returning Cherries to the Premier League last season, defeating them in both matches despite their own problems. Still, Pochettino manages better with his team, which appears significantly weaker. Let's bet on a victory for the London guests.
Prediction for the match: Chelsea to win.
