Bournemouth vs Manchester City. Prediction (odds 2.43) and bets on the English Premier League match

Current form

Bournemouth have proven themselves to be a threat to the authorities in recent rounds. First, the Cherries beat Arsenal on their home field (2:0), taking advantage of the numerical advantage after the early dismissal of the opponent. Then there was an away match against Aston Villa, when they managed to equalize the score (1:1) in the sixth minute of added time. With 12 points scored at the start of the 10th round, Andoni Iraola team is approaching the 11th place in the league table.

Overall, https://www.afcb.co.uk target=_blank rel=noopener>Bournemouth is improving as the season progresses, and it is no coincidence that they have managed to score seven points in the last five rounds. Moreover, at Vitality, the team has suffered only one defeat in the Premier League – from Chelsea with a minimal score of 0:1. It should be noted that at home, the Cherries play reliably in defense, having conceded only three goals in four games.

Bournemouth were knocked out of the League Cup at the 1/32 final stage, losing to West Ham (0:1). The team does not play in European competitions either, so Andoni Iraola is now throwing all his efforts only at the EPL. This moment also had a positive effect on the recent successes.

Disqualifications and injuries

Scott will definitely not play today due to injury. Arrizabalaga and Sinisterra have minor injuries, their appearance on the field is still in question.

Interesting trends for betting

• Bournemouth have drawn 0-0 with their opponents in the last two matches
• At least three goals have been scored in 12 of the team previous 14 league matches
• The Cherries have not lost at home in 9 of their last 11 Premier League games

Estimated line-up : Travers – Smith, Zabarny, Senesi, Kerkez – Cook, Christie – Outtara, Kluivert, Semenyo – Evanilson.

Current form

Manchester City became the sole leader in the Premier League following the last round. Josep Guardiola men won with a minimal score of 1:0 against Southampton, while Liverpool shared points with Arsenal (2:2). The Citizens have 23 points and are one point ahead of the Merseysiders.

Overall, after a slight slump that the team had experienced in the second half of September, they managed to get on a winning streak of five matches in all tournaments. However, during the week they suffered a 1-2 away defeat to Tottenham in the League Cup. Guardiola brought a reserve team to London for that match, and there was clearly no goal of winning at any cost. It should be noted that the defeat to Spurs was the team first in all official matches this season.

There are two things that are alarming before the trip to Bournemouth. Firstly, a large number of injured players. Secondly, recent victories in the Premier League over far from the most formidable opponents have not been the most convincing. Guardiola charges won three matches in a row against Fulham, Wolverhampton and Southampton with an advantage of only one goal, which is unusual for them.

Disqualifications and injuries

Bobb, De Bruyne, Doku, Rodri and Walker are injured and will not play today. Savinho, Akanji and Grealish are also injured and may not play

Interesting trends for betting

• Manchester City have failed to win in the first half in three of their last five matches
• Both teams have scored in seven of City previous eight Premier League matches
• Manchester City unbeaten run in the Premier League reaches 32 matches
• Manchester City have won 13 of their last 15 away games in the Premier League

Probable line-up : Ederson - Lewis, Ake, Dias, Guardiol - Gundogan, Kovacic - Silva, Foden, Luis - Haaland.
