One of Tuesday's Six EPL clashes will take place at Stamford Bridge, where Chelsea will be hoping to atone for that turnaround defeat against Aston Villa last time out. Despite leading and being on top against the Villans on December 27th, the Blues came unstuck, eventually losing by two goals to one following a late onslaught from their visitors. Fortunately, the Cherries haven't really been performing like a team that's about to upset a top-five team on the road, so this looks like a nice opportunity for Enzo Maresca's men to bounce back.
Andoni Iraola's men also need to bounce back following a heavy defeat against Brentford. Not for the first time, the Cherries looked all over the place defensively against the Bees, conceding four goals for the second time in three matches. After showing plenty of early-season promise, Tuesday's visitors have started to really struggle, winning none of their last nine EPL games. Right now, it's hard to see where that next victory is coming from.

Our Chelsea vs Bournemouth Prediction
Lewis Cook missed a chunk of the December action thanks to his red card against Sunderland, but he's since returned to the Bournemouth starting XI and with Tyler Adams and Adam Scott both expected to be out, is almost certain to start at Stamford Bridge on Tuesday. With this in mind, the English midfielder is well worth betting on to pick up a card. Up against a Chelsea team that contains many tricky customers, Cook, who is no stranger to making rash and late tackles, won't have an easy evening.
We haven't seen Cook used too much this season, but he showed us that he's still alive and well as one of the EPL's most known foulers, receiving a red card against Sunderland recently, and let's not forget, this is a man who picked up eight cards last season, so it's about time that he picked up a yellow this term.
Referee Samuel Barrett is also no stranger to dishing out the cards, taking charge of two Bournemouth games this season, brandishing seven cards in the direction of the Cherries.
Our Bournemouth vs Chelsea Pick: Lewis Cook to Receive a Card.
