Chelsea vs Bournemouth Preview: How to Watch, Recent Form, Team News, Predictions & More

Chelsea welcome Bournemouth to Stamford Bridge on Wednesday evening in a Carabao Cup quarter-final clash.

The Blues reached this stage after first defeating Liverpool at the third round stage, before narrowly edging past Derby County 3-2 in the round of 16 at the end of October.

Meanwhile, Bournemouth have had to navigate three fixtures after joining the competition at the second round stage, dispatching MK Dons, Blackburn Rovers and then Norwich City to qualify for their second consecutive League Cup quarter-final.

Here's everything you need to know ahead of Wednesday's tie.

Maurizio Sarri hasn't been afraid to rotate his side in cup matches so far this season and, given the fact that Chelsea have a busy Christmas period ahead of them, he is likely to rest some of his big stars.
