Chelsea vs Bournemouth Confirmed Lineups for December 30

These are the Chelsea vs Bournemouth confirmed lineups for their Premier League clash. The Blues are in a slight freefall with only one league win from the last six matches, sitting 12th in the form table over the recent weeks. Their opponents here are one of the few teams with worse form as the Cherries have picked up just three points in their last six and look ripe for the picking against a Chelsea team in need of points.
