By Egeonu Ifeanyichukwu Premier League Match Week nine preview. Bournemouth vs Leicester The Cherries are unbeaten in their last four games under interim boss Gary O'Neill, and have stopped conceding goals. They will cause Leicester problems from set-pieces, but the Foxes showed against Nottingham Forest that they carry a real threat - James Maddison is in the form of his life at the moment.  It's going to be close, but I expect Leicester to edge this one. My prediction: 1-2  Chelsea vs Wolves   Wolves sacked Bruno Lage after their defeat at West Ham last weekend, and after just one win in their past 15 matches. To some the decision to get rid of a manager so early in the season, looks a bit harsh. They also had issues scoring goals, of course, but it is not his fault that their strikers got injured. They don't have a manager at the moment and I can't see them winning here, either. Chelsea are gradually finding their feet under Graham Potter and Pierre-Emeri...
