Despite losing star striker Dominic Solanke in the summer, Bournemouth have enjoyed an unbeaten start to the Premier League season. Following two draws, Andoni Iraola’s side produced a stunning late comeback to secure a 3-2 win over Everton. Winger Antoine Semenyo was superb in that game and will now look to give the Chelsea defenders an equally tough time. 

After a busy summer for Chelsea with plenty of departures and arrivals, the Blues have blown hot and cold. They were at their destructive best when beating Wolves 6-2, but lost to Man City and drew with Crystal Palace. Enzo Maresca may well choose to make some changes and there could be a debut for loanee Jadon Sancho. 

Team news in full: 

Chelsea XI: Sanchez; Disasi, W Fofana, Colwill, Cucurella; Caicedo, Veiga; Madueke, Palmer, Neto; Jackson

Subs: Jorgensen, Tosin, Badiashile, Casadei, Felix, Mudryk, Nkunku, Sancho, Guiu

Bournemouth XI: Travers, Smith, Senesi, Zabarnyi, Kerkez, Cook, Christie, Tavernier, Kluivert, Semenyo, Evanilson

Subs: Dennis, Huijsen, Brooks, Scott, Sinisterra, Araujo, Hill, Enus Unal, Philip

Bournemouth traditionally have a poor record against the Blues. Can they gain a first victory over Chelsea since 2019? Tune in to find out.

Watch Bournemouth vs Chelsea from anywhere

Away from home at the moment and blocked from watching the soccer on your usual subscription?

You can still watch Bournemouth vs Chelsea live thanks to the wonders of a VPN (Virtual Private Network). The software allows your devices to appear to be back in your home country regardless of where in the world you are, making it ideal for viewers away on vacation or on business. Our favorite is NordVPN. It's the best on the market:

Using a VPN is incredibly simple.

1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, NordVPN is our favorite.

2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance, if you're away from the U.S. but want to view your usual U.S. service, you'd select U.S. from the list.

3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Head to a service listed below that's showing Bournemouth vs Chelsea and watch the game.

Soccer fans in the U.S. can watch a Bournemouth vs Chelsea live stream on Peacock, NBC's streaming service. To tune in, you'll need to be signed up for either a Premium subscription ($7.99/month) or Premium Plus ($13.99/month), which also gets rid of some ads.

If you're outside of the U.S. but have one of these subscriptions, you can watch the Bournemouth vs Chelsea live stream by using a VPN, such as NordVPN.

Sky Sports hosts the Bournemouth vs Chelsea live stream in the U.K., so if you already have a Sky subscription that doesn't include Sports, you'll need to pay £22/month to add those channels. The game will be shown on Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Premier League.

Whichever package you go for, you'll also gain access to coverage in 4K and HDR, as long as you also have an HDR-ready Sky Q box and HLG-compatible TV.

Sky Glass is another option. This gives you Sky TV within a 4K TV that has a built-in Dolby Atmos soundbar, and without the need for a dish. Prices start at £14/month for the TV, plus a Sky sub on top of that.

If you don't want to shell out for a full Sky subscription, you could also consider its Now Sports streaming service. This gives you 24-hour access for £14.99 or month-long access for £34.99. 

All sounds great, right? But if you're not in the UK, you can still follow a Bournemouth vs Chelsea live stream by using one of the best VPN services, such as NordVPN
