Chelsea will be out to avoid a fourth successive Premier League defeat when they return to Stamford Bridge to take on Bournemouth on Tuesday.
The sixth-placed Blues suffered a 1-0 defeat to Aston Villa in a winter friendly, while the 14th-placed Cherries lost their EFL Cup fourth-round tie to Newcastle United this week by the same scoreline, and here Sports Mole rounds up the team news for both clubs.
