Bournemouth vs Crystal Palace Predictions
Bournemouth had a week off from football after getting knocked out in the third round of the FA Cup by Millwall. Their last match was the 2-2 draw at home to Watford last Saturday, and that extra week of rest could prove crucial in determining the outcome of this clash.
The Cherries’ draw last time out did make it four games without a win for them in all competitions, but at home they have a significantly better record than their overall form suggests. They have won five, drawn three, and lost two of their last ten Premier League outings at the Vitality Stadium.
Their two defeats did come against Sunderland and Southampton, but their results against Everton, Spurs, Liverpool, and Arsenal illustrate that they are a force to be reckoned with on home soil.
Despite their overall solid form at home they have only kept one clean sheet in their last six at home, and they’re facing a Crystal Palace side full of attacking threat with the likes of Wilfried Zaha and Christian Benteke at their disposal.
The visitors, despite the talented attacking lineup, are in severe trouble right now. They were knocked out of the FA Cup 3-0 to Manchester City on Saturday, but that disappointment pales in comparison to their Premier League traumas.
The Eagles have lost six and drawn two of their last eight games in the league and have won just one of their last 16 matches. This, unsurprisingly, leaves them in the relegation zone with 16 points from their 22 games. This is largely thanks to their early season good form though.
Crystal Palace have managed to score in ten of their last 14 league games and have only failed to score three times on the road all season. Unfortunately for them they have conceded a huge 25 goals on their travels and haven’t kept a single clean sheet.
This will please the likes of Callum Wilson a great amount. The English striker has notched six times in the league for Bournemouth this season, and with four of those coming in nine home starts, he looks the best option for our anytime goalscorer predictions.
Considering Bournemouth have scored 11 goals in their last five home games but conceded the same amount, odds of 7/10 for Both Teams to Score look incredibly good value. I’m backing that alongside a 2-1 win for the hosts at 17/2 for my correct score predictions.
