Bournemouth vs Southampton Prediction

Bournemouth form

Bournemouth go into their upcoming match unbeaten in their previous three matches, which started off with a 0-0 draw against Brentford. They went on to beat Leicester 2-1, before sharing the spoils with Fulham in a 2-2 draw. Bournemouth managed to win two of their past six home matches in the Premier League. In the remaining four, they drew two and lost two, as they scored four and conceded six goals.

Bournemouth looked destined for a season fighting off relegation, but current form has them no way near the drop zone in the Premier League.

Southampton Form

Southampton came away from their previous three games with just one point, as they lost 1-2 against Everton. A 4-0 defeat against Manchester City followed, before a 1-1 draw with West Ham. In their last six Premier League away matches, Southampton failed to win more than once. In stead, they've drawn zero and lost five, scoring four while also conceding 15 times.

They were expected to be in for a season at the lower part of the table. Even that looks way off the mark following a terrible run for Southampton.

It seems both Southampton and Bournemouth have some issues concerning their defence, as they seem to find themselves on the receiving end a bit too often lately. We believe the trend continues this coming Wednesday, and we are rooting for goals.

Bournemouth scored nine goals and conceded five in their last five games against teams from the bottom half of the Premier League table. They collected 11 points and three victories. Southampton scored three goals and conceded ten in their last four encounters with teams in the top half of the Premier League. This lead to one win and three points.
