Chelsea vs AFC Bournemouth Prediction, Odds and Picks for Tomorrow, 12/30/25

Chelsea have only won 2 of their last 8 games across all competitions, but they will like their chances of beating an out-of-form Bournemouth at Stamford Bridge. The Blues looked like they were going to end Aston Villa’s winning run in West London on Saturday, as they deservedly led 1-0 at halftime, but 2 second-half goals from Ollie Watkins turned the game on its head. That defeat all but ended Chelsea’s hopes of mounting a title challenge, but they remain very much in the hunt for a place in the top 4, while Bournemouth’s 9-match winless run has seen them turn from European hopefuls into a team looking nervously over their shoulders at the other end of the EPL standings.

When Bournemouth beat Nottingham Forest at the end of October, they went 2nd in the Premier League, but they have registered just 4 points and no wins from their 9 games since to plummet down the table. Arguably the worst result in that run was Saturday’s 4-1 loss at Brentford, and Bournemouth’s overall away record makes for grim reading, with their only league win to date on their travels coming at Tottenham all the way back in August.

The good news for Andoni Iraola’s side is they do tend to score on their travels, with in-form Villa being the only team to shut them out across their 9 road matches this season. Scoring might be as good as it gets for the Cherries though, as they are winless in their last 8 meetings with Chelsea and they have lost on 2 of their last 3 visits to Stamford Bridge. All that points to Chelsea winning and both teams scoring as a value bet at plus-money odds.
