Archived pre-match analysis

This analysis was prepared before kick-off. The conclusions use only information available before the match and do not include the final result or post-match statistics.

General match analysis

Chelsea are 10th in the table, while Bournemouth are 17th. At home, Chelsea have averaged 3 goals per match, compared with Bournemouth’s 1.5 goals per game away from home. Chelsea also create more chances: their home xG is 1.70, compared with Bournemouth’s away xG of 1.19, while their average shots on target are 6.5 and 4.5 respectively. The hosts’ advantage is tempered by a defense that concedes an average of 2.5 goals per home match and has yet to keep a clean sheet. Bournemouth have had a slightly better run over their last five matches — 2 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss, compared with Chelsea’s 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses — so an away goal is a realistic possibility. Even so, Bournemouth are yet to win away from home, and Chelsea’s greater attacking strength points to a home win.

View the statistical overview
BTTS - will both teams score?

BTTS landed in 67% of Chelsea’s home matches and 100% of Bournemouth’s away fixtures, strongly pointing towards both teams scoring. Chelsea conceded an average of 1.33 goals at home, rising to 2.6 in their last 5 matches, so Bournemouth, averaging 1.5 goals away from home, has a real chance of finding the net. Meanwhile, the visitors conceded an average of 2.0 goals away and failed to keep a clean sheet in every match, while Chelsea posted an xG of 1.72 at home. The risk is that Chelsea failed to score in 33% of their home matches; however, their average of 5.67 shots on target per game and 2.6 goals per match recently strengthen the case for BTTS - Yes.

Over/Under - goals analysis

In their last 5 matches, Chelsea scored and conceded 2.6 goals per game, averaging 5.2 goals per match; over the same period, Bournemouth matches averaged 3.2 goals. Over 2.5 goals landed in 100% and 80% of those matches, respectively, although such a high hit rate may not continue in the next game. The case for goals is further supported by Bournemouth averaging 1.5 goals scored and 2.0 conceded away from home, while Chelsea have an xG of 1.72 at home. With projected totals of 1.85 goals for the hosts and 1.35 for the visitors, Over 1.5 goals offers the clearest edge: this line was reached in 67% of Chelsea’s home matches and 100% of Bournemouth’s away matches.

View Over/Under statistics
HT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario

Bournemouth led at the break in both of their away matches so far, scoring an average of 1.5 first-half goals, while Chelsea were level at half-time in 2 of their 3 home games. However, the visitors lost the second half in both away matches, failed to score after the break and conceded an average of 1.5 goals, making it uncertain whether they can hold on to their lead. Chelsea generate 1.72 xG at home compared with Bournemouth’s 1.19 away, giving the hosts a basis for a turnaround. Since Chelsea have drawn 2 of 3 home matches and Bournemouth 1 of 2 away matches, an away lead at half-time followed by a draw at full-time looks the most likely scenario, although the sample size is small.
