7.70Tip and bets
Bournemouth play at home, play in the Premier League, and quite successfully, and, accordingly, receive the status of a clear favorite from bookmakers. However, we do not think that the hosts will easily secure a ticket to the 1/16 finals of the Cup today. The Cherries have serious problems with the lineup, which affected the attack; they won only one of the seven previous matches with a difference of more than one goal. West Bromwich in their game relies on defense, which is distinguished by its organization and reliability; it is unlikely that the guests will deviate from their usual pragmatic football today.
Our prediction is a West Bromwich win with an Asian handicap (+1) at odds of 1.90
Bet on total
Bournemouth often have difficulties in matches where they have to break down a dense and well-organized defense of the opponents, which was confirmed by the last match against Everton (1:0). We do not expect more than two goals scored in the cup game today.

Bet on the first half
Three of Bournemouth last five matches have seen the score end at 0-0 in the first half, with all the action taking place after the break. We expect the same scenario to be played out this time.
