AFC Bournemouth vs Peterborough Predictions
- Bournemouth’s last four games saw at least three goals with both teams scoring.
- A league-high 87% of Bournemouth’s home league games saw over 2.5 total goals.
- Peterborough have conceded a league-high 48 goals away from home this season.
- 72% of Peterborough’s away league games produced over 2.5 goals.
Cherries look to pop a few past Posh
While a shock defeat to Preston last time out meant that Bournemouth moved out of the top-two, they won’t be breaking a sweat just yet as this is one of four games in hand they possess over Huddersfield, the side who are merely minding their place while they rack some points up.
A constant theme of games at the Vitality Stadium this term has been goals, a statement made all the more significant when considering that a league-high 13 games produced over 2.5 goals at this venue, despite Bournemouth having played at least four fewer home games than some teams.
Posh by name, poor by nature
Rock-bottom Peterborough have a mammoth task ahead of them if they are to end a rotten eight-game winless run (D1, L7). In that time, fans have managed to celebrate just one Peterborough goal, albeit a consolation while 2-0 down at Fulham.
That kind of form suggests that Peterborough are simply not up to the fight, as their second-tier status seems to be slipping away by the week. Compounding matters for any Posh hopes is a woeful away defensive record, which has seen Peterborough concede 2.7 goals on average.
Given the gulf in class between these sides, I predict that this game could be an exciting one with over 2.5 total goals. As for the correct score, I am sticking with a 3-0 Bournemouth walkover scoreline, as they could pile yet more misery upon Posh dreams.
