AFC Bournemouth Southampton betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The “under 2.5 goals” is what we suggest for this match. In this match, Bournemouth must dominate and enjoy the best opportunities as they play at home, however, with some difficulties in reaching the goals. On the other hand, Southampton is in a bad moment and so they should act in a more defensive way. Note that both teams have several gaps in finalization. So, and taking into account these details, betting in favor of a balanced match with few goals is a good option.

In the penultimate match, they tied in an away match against Swansea City, by (0‑0). In the last match, they lost in a home match against Burnley, by (1‑2).

Bournemouth comes unmotivated for this match after the defeat at home against Burnley, by 1-2, adding the second followed match without winning the English championship: King was the author of the only goal. In this home match, the coach Eddie Howe must keep the team in 4-2-3-1, benefiting from ball possession and organized attacks: Joshua King is a very important player in the organization of the offensive process. However, the great highlight of the home team is centre forward Callum Wilson with 3 scored goals. For this match, the coach won’t count on Federici, Stanislas and Mings, all injured.

Confirmed Lineup: Asmir Begović, Adam Smith, Charlie Daniels, Simon Francis, Nathan Aké, Andrew Surman, Junior Stanislas, Lewis Cook, Ryan Fraser, Jermain Defoe, Joshua King.
Coach: G. O'Neil.

In this competition, they haven’t won any of the last 4 away matches.

Steven Davis is the main highlight of the team with 3 goals and 1 assist. Targett is still absent from the team due to injury.
