Bournemouth face Chelsea in a Premier League match at the Vitality Stadium as they want to move away from the relegation zone. Meanwhile, the Blues have lost their last six games and are looking for a reaction.
At the moment they are succeeding. Conor Gallagher opens the scoring in the ninth minute to give Lampard's side the lead. The Englishmann grabbed a brilliant first to put Chelsea into a dominant position at Bournemouth.
Both teams were sharing possession but Lampard's side showed their claws as they have created more chances so far. N'Golo Kante was dodging several Bournemouth players and passed to Gallagher, who headed home the opener for Chelsea.
If the match ends this way, Chelsea would be in 11th place on 42 points while Bournemouth would be in 14th place on 39 points.
