Chelsea vs Bournemouth confirmed line-ups: Team news ahead of Premier League fixture



Chelsea welcome Bournemouth to Old Trafford as Frank Lampard’s side look to recover from last week’s defeat by Everton.

The Blues did secure their place in the Champions League last-16 in midweek, though, with a tense victory over Lille.

Eddie Howe’s side have been on a dire streak, losing five matches in succession since upsetting Manchester United at the start of last month.

That run has left the Cherries just one point clear of the relegation zone.
