Bournemouth vs Crystal Palace Prediction & Betting Tips - Premier League
by Daniel Ngulu | in Premier League Predictions
Out of form Crystal Palace are set to travel to high-flying Bournemouth seeking a return to winning ways in the English Premier League. The two teams will face off on Thursday and in case you are looking to bet on the match, here is our preview and prediction to help.
The Eagles and the Cherries are having contrasting league campaigns. Bournemouth are riding high and start this match in fifth place whereas their opponents are struggling to keep themselves off of the relegation zone. As a result, bookies have the hosts as heavy favourites to win.
This placing is well deserved, with Bournemouth coming off their fourth win in five matches. Meanwhile Palace are reeling from back-to-back losses against Arsenal, one in the league and the other in the League Cup. Bournemouth’s confidence coming to this game will also be fueled by their two straight wins in previous meetings with Crystal Palace.

Bournemouth - Crystal Palace: Form Analysis
Bournemouth are in superb form. Andoni Iraola’s men haven’t lost any of their last five fixtures, picking up 13 points out of a possible 15. The Cherries got back to winning ways with another emphatic showing against Manchester United.
Bournemouth won a second successive match away to United 3-0. The win this past weekend elevated them to 28 points and into the European qualifying places.
Bournemouth have won eight of their 17 fixtures with half coming at their Vitality Stadium. The hosts have defeated Palace in their last two meetings and kept clean sheets in both.
Bournemouth scored 11 time in the last five matches.
Crystal Palace are struggling and another loss here could see them drop to within a point of the relegation zone. Oliver Glasner’s men have managed just three wins after 17 rounds of play and have lost a further seven times.
The Eagles are coming off back-to-back defeats to Arsenal. The first was a 3-2 setback that saw their League Cup campaign come to an end. In the more recent game, this time as hosts, Palace were hammered 5-1.
This was their heaviest loss thus far this season. The Glaziers have won just twice in their last nine matches across all competitions. On the bright side, both of those wins have come with them as the away team.

Bournemouth & Crystal Palace Squad Analysis
Bournemouth could be without Adam Smith for this match after he was injured in the win at Old Trafford. The Cherries already have Luis Sinisterra, Marcus Tavernier, Marcos Sensei and Julian Araujo already ruled out by injuries.
Antoine Semenyo, Enes Unal, Evanilson and Justin Kluivert are, however, all available. The four have scored 17 league goals between them.
Eberechi Eze could miss this game as well.
Crystal Palace are sweating over the availability of Eberechi Eze. The forward missed the Arsenal mauling with a foot injury. Eze is a key component of Palace’s attack and his absence is a big blow.
There is some positive news though for the visitors as Daniel Munoz is back from suspension. Munoz has two league goals and is one of five players to have scored two or more for the Eagles.
Jean-Phillipe Mateta and Ismaila Sarr have both scored four league goals and will be pivotal for Palace here.
