Bournemouth vs Crystal Palace Prediction & Betting Tips - Premier League

Prediction published on 02/04/2024, 06:09  by Sridhar in Premier League Predictions

Bournemouth could virtually ensure top-flight survival as they host an erratic Crystal Palace at the Vitality Stadium. This Premier League matchday 30 will be played on Tuesday, with the hosts 13th with 38 points and the visitors just behind them with 30 points. Forty points is the psychological barrier to safety, and the Cherries could reach there with a win here. They are high on confidence, having defeated Everton 2-1 for their third win in four league matches. The only exception in that sequence was a 2-2 draw with Sheffield United. The spring in the step is evident, as the Bournemouth side has scored ten goals in these last four matches. The win at Everton came at this venue, giving them back-to-back wins, and the Cherries have also won the reverse fixture 2-0.

Palace are coming off a 1-1 draw with Nottingham Forest, their second straight result of the same score. The Eagles have won just one of their last seven league games, drawing and losing three games each. New boss Oliver Glasner will hope that they can sustain the momentum, as they won one, drawn two, and lost one of their four competitive matches under his charge. While there is no imminent threat of relegation, if the results don’t improve, they could be threatened by the likes of Brentford and Everton. That puts pressure on Palace to improve, especially when travelling away from home. They have failed to win their last ten away competitive matches, drawing four and losing six. Specifically in the league, they have lost four and drawn two of their last six away league games, casting doubts over their chances on this trip.
