The Blues have had a mixed start to the campaign with four points attained from three games. They will face the Cherries away from home this weekend.

Ahead of the encounter, they have received a timely boost with Cole Palmer involved in training after a minor injury scare.

Palmer was forced to withdraw from England duty with a hamstring issue, but he has recovered in time to report for training.

The news is a huge boost for the west London giants, considering Palmer has been exceptional for them in the final third.

The Manchester City graduate has had a fantastic start to the top-flight season with four assists and one goal to his name.

Chelsea have looked impressive in the attacking aspect under new manager Enzo Maresca , but have struggled defensively at times.

This needs to improve following the international break.
