Chelsea’s Premier League season kicks off on December 27 when they host newly promoted Bournemouth at Stamford Bridge.
The Blues are in a troubling run of form.
They are winless in their last five league games, including three straight losses.
As a result, Chelsea is now eighth in the table and in danger of dropping out of contention for a place in the Champions League.
Meanwhile, Bournemouth have made a good start to life back in England’s top flight, with 16 points from 15 games.
According to Simon Phillips, Wesley Fofana was injured in a behind-closed-doors accident.
