Seeking to end a six-game losing run, Chelsea travel to the Vitality Stadium to face an in-form Bournemouth outfit in the Premier League on Saturday.
While the Blues are searching for their first win in any competition since March 11, the Cherries are looking to record three successive top-flight victories for the first time this season.
We say: Bournemouth 2-1 Chelsea
Chelsea managed to beat Bournemouth without reply in December, but a lot has changed since and the two teams enter the reverse fixture on Saturday in contrasting form, with a tighter affair potentially on the cards at the Vitality Stadium.
With the Blues lacking confidence and direction under the current management, we believes that the Cherries can continue their strong run by claiming maximum points as they make a final push to all but secure their Premier League status for next season.

Manchester City will attempt to increase their lead at the top of the Premier League table when they welcome Sam Allardyce's Leeds United to the Etihad Stadium on Saturday afternoon.
The Premier League have confirmed that the 3pm contest will be televised, with the usual 12.30pm slot avoided to work around the Coronation of King Charles.
We say: Manchester City 3-0 Leeds United
Saturday's result could have huge implications at both ends of the table, with Leeds running out of games to save themselves and head to the Etihad as huge underdogs against an in-form Man City side who are seeking to retain the Premier League title.
Shoring up a woeful Leeds' backline in such a short space of time against the most potent attack in world football is seemingly a tall order for Allardyce, and we expect the Citizens to eventually run out comfortable winners, even if they experience spells of frustration as they did in the first half against West Ham.

Spurs vs. Crystal Palace (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Having both been involved in spectacular seven-goal affairs last weekend, Tottenham Hotspur and Crystal Palace have a lot to live up to in Saturday's Premier League London derby.
Ryan Mason's side were edged out 4-3 by Liverpool at Anfield in their most recent battle, while the Eagles won by the same scoreline against fellow London rivals West Ham United.
We say: Tottenham Hotspur 3-2 Crystal Palace
After last weekend's spectacles, it would be typical of the footballing gods to send down a dull 0-0 draw, but goals should be a certainty in this one, as a reinvigorated Palace attack take advantage of Tottenham's ongoing deficiencies at the back.
Spurs have admirably responded to adversity in Mason's first two games in charge, though, and having given both Liverpool and Manchester United a good run for their money, we expect Tottenham's attack to click once more and propel the Lilywhites to a hard-fought success.

Wolves vs. Aston Villa (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Aiming to bounce back from last week's humiliation and secure their Premier League status, Wolverhampton Wanderers welcome West Midlands rivals Aston Villa to Molineux on Saturday afternoon.
While Wolves were demolished by Brighton & Hove Albion and remain shy of the magical 40-point mark, Villa's loss at Old Trafford halted their surge towards the European places.
We say: Wolverhampton Wanderers 1-1 Aston Villa
A repeat of the result from this term's reverse fixture is on the cards at Molineux, as Wolves offer more of a threat at home and Villa are one of the Premier League's top teams when it comes to points earned away. The clubs' coaches also know each other well, so another tightly-fought tussle should end all-square.

Liverpool vs. Brentford (Saturday, 5.30pm)

Seeking vengeance on the team who made their start to 2023 a miserable one, Liverpool welcome Brentford to Anfield on Saturday evening for their penultimate home game of the Premier League season.
Jurgen Klopp's side eked out a 1-0 win over Fulham in midweek, while the Bees won in similarly nervy circumstances against Nottingham Forest last weekend, coming from behind to prevail 2-1.
We say: Liverpool 2-1 Brentford
Neither Liverpool nor Brentford were entirely convincing in their most recent one-goal victories, and there may not be a lot to choose from in this battle, particularly as fatigue sets in for the hosts' tired legs.
Klopp is still blessed with options to refresh his forward line, though, and the in-form Reds' home exploits contrast starkly with the Bees' patchy results on the road, so we still have faith in Klopp's side to get the job done. It may not be pretty, though.
