The Blues are hunting their third consecutive top-flight victory after seeing off Brighton and defending Champions Manchester City.
And Chelsea should have the services of Eden Hazard from the off after the Belgian made his return from an ankle knock against the Cherries.

Hazard was forced off during the closing stages of the 2-1 win over Brighton following a hefty challenge from Dale Stephens and was only named on the bench in midweek.
However, the 27-year-old made a vital contribution when he popped up to score the winner – and his 99th Chelsea goal – with six minutes remaining.
Hazard could reprise his role as a ‘false nine’, with Sarri having fielded his star man up front in the absence of the injured Alvaro Morata.
The Spaniard picked up a knee problem in the Europa League clash with MOL Vidi and is expected to miss out.
Andreas Christensen joins him on the treatment table after the centre-back suffered a hamstring injury against Bournemouth.
Victor Moses was back in training this week but is not expected to feature while Gary Cahill is also doubtful yet was unlikely to dislodge the favoured centre-back pairing of Antonio Rudiger and David Luiz.
Luis, Marcos Alonso, Jorginho and N’Golo Kante should all return after being rested against Eddie Howe’s side while Mateo Kovacic is expected to start in midfield.
Meanwhile, Olivier Giroud may have to settle for a place on the bench with Hazard likely to be flanked by Pedro and Willian.
