This season in the Premier League, Bournemouth has emerged as one of the most pleasant surprises. Contrary to the general expectation of them battling relegation, they are currently eight points clear of the drop zone after 24 league rounds. Andoni Iraola’s team has lost only one match in the last five across all competitions, indicating a satisfactory recent form. In their latest match, Bournemouth secured a 2-2 draw against Newcastle on the road. They were on the brink of claiming all three points, but the home team managed to equalize during the second half’s stoppage time.

This season’s Premier League presents an exhilarating title race, with Manchester City neck-and-neck with Liverpool and Arsenal. Pep Guardiola’s squad is on an impressive streak with 12 victories in 13 matches. The team clinched a 1-0 win against Brentford on home turf in their last game. With the home side posting an xG of 2.46 against Brentford’s 0.34, Manchester City arguably could have won by a larger margin. Ultimately, the crucial thing is that Guardiola’s team secured another win, bolstering their confidence as they prepare to play at the Vitality Stadium in Bournemouth.
