Chelsea will face Bournemouth in their upcoming Premier League match without key players Reece James, Malo Gusto, and Romeo Lavia due to injuries. Head coach Enzo Maresca remains optimistic, noting that Wesley Fofana and Cole Palmer have returned to training after missing international duty. Despite the absence of these players, Maresca insists the team's focus is on the pitch amidst rumors of internal tension between co-owners Todd Boehly and Behdad Eghbali. The Blues have had a mixed start to the season, with a win, a loss, and a draw in their first three games. Additionally, Chelsea are among the favorites for the Europa Conference League, with Fiorentina also seen as strong contenders. As the Premier League transfer window closes, teams are finalizing their squads for the first half of the season.
