Hello and welcome to football.london's live coverage of Chelsea's Premier League clash at Bournemouth this afternoon. Frank Lampard is searching for his first points as interim Chelsea head coach since taking the job last month. The 44-year-old has took charge of six matches in all competitions thus far and the Blues have been beaten in every single match. Chelsea haven't got too much to play for in the remaining games of the season but Lampard has consistently spoken about taking pride in the work his side do. They face an in-form Bournemouth side whose recent form has taken them out of trouble but Gary O'Neil's team will be eager to ensure their place in the division next season with another three points this afternoon. READ MORE: Lampard, though, will be desperate for his side to put on a performance down on the south coast for the team's sake and for personal reasons as he looks to get another job once his temporary contract at Stamford Bridge expires. It's any guess what sort of side Lampard will put out at the Vitality Stadium with Chelsea's huge squad all vying for a spot in the first-team. We will know more about team news as the afternoon goes on. You can follow that, and all of the other pre-match build-up, right here with football.london's live coverage of Bournemouth vs Chelsea.

Bournemouth host Chelsea in a mid-table clash in the Premier League as the Blues look to end their losing streak. Frank Lampard's side have lost each of their last six games in all competitions, with their last win coming on March 11 against Leicester. The Cherries on the other hand have won four of their last five games, leading to manager Gary O'Neil being nominated for April's manager of the month. Chelsea are currently ahead of Bournemouth in 12th place only because of goal difference (-7 vs. -28), but it's the hosts who have scored five more goals this season (36 vs. 31).

Chelsea will be desperate to return to winning ways when they take on Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium on Saturday. Just four more rounds of fixtures remain for the 2022/23 Premier League season to end. And battles on both ends of the table are spicing up by the day. Gameweek 35 will kick off on Saturday with four simultaneous matches. And one of those games will feature Bournemouth and Chelsea at the Vitality Stadium. Bournemouth began the 2022/23 Premier League season in turmoil, with Scott Parker losing his job. Gary O’Neil replaced the 42-year-old at the Vitality Stadium and has gradually galvanised the squad. And the Cherries have won four of their last five games to rise to 13th on the table. With the latest run of results, they will likely preserve their top-flight status for another campaign. On the other hand, Chelsea will want to forget the 2022/23 season as soon as possible after going through two managers. Thomas Tuchel started the campaign at the helm before facing the axe just a month in. Graham Potter unsuccessfully replaced the German tactician before departing last month. Frank Lampard has since come in as the caretaker boss and lost all six of his games in charge, Gary O’Neil does not have any new injury concerns hampering his preparations ahead of his side’s latest fixture. Against Chelsea on Saturday, the Bournemouth manager might be bereft of the services of as many as six first-team players. Ryan Fredericks (calf), Junior Stanislas (knock), and Mar...

Bournemouth are another of those, they drop to 14th. This was a game decided by the smallest of margins, despite the scoreline. The Blues had only had one more shot than the hosts' 10, but crucially made theirs count. Chelsea stop the rot with their first win in seven games! Substitutes Badiashile and Felix struck late on to give the Blues a morale-boosting win. Bournemouth will be disappointed to have crumbled in the last 10 minutes. They looked good value for the d...
