Bournemouth vs Chelsea Prediction and Betting Tips | December 6th 2025 

Bournemouth and Chelsea will trade tackles in a Premier League round 15 clash on Saturday (December 6th). The game will be played at the Vitality Stadium.

The home side will be looking to bounce back from the 1-0 defeat they suffered against Everton at the same venue in midweek. Jack Grealish ended his five-game goal drought when he broke the deadlock with 12 minutes to go to settle the contest.

Chelsea, meanwhile, suffered a shock 3-1 defeat away to Leeds United. They were 2-0 down at the break to goals from Jaka Bijol and Ao Tanaka. Pedro Neto stepped off the bench at halftime and halved the deficit five minutes into the second half. A defensive blunder saw Dominic Calvert-Lewin secure the win for the hosts.

The loss saw the Blues drop to fourth spot in the standings, having garnered 24 points from 14 games. Bournemouth are 14th on 19 points.

Bournemouth vs Chelsea Prediction

Bournemouth's poor run of form has seen them plummet down the table, with Andoni Iraola's side sitting 14th, albeit being just five points off the top four. A fast start can be expected from the Cherries, having scored five goals in the opening 15 minutes of games this season - the joint-most in the division.

Defensive frailty has been a cause for concern, with 13 goals conceded in their last five games - two more than they conceded in their opening eight.

Chelsea's title aspirations are flailing, with their loss at Elland Road leaving them nine points off table-toppers Arsenal. The Blues have not had any problems finding the back of the net, having failed to score in just one of 14 EPL games this term.

We are backing the visitors to claim a narrow win with goals at both ends.

Prediction: Bournemouth 1-2 Chelsea
