Bournemouth vs Manchester United Prediction & Betting Tips - Premier League

This match is more significant to Manchester United than Bournemouth that’s why United are deemed favorites at 1.54. Hosts Bournemouth come into the game with odds of 6.3 for a win while a draw is priced at 5.

Bournemouth have lost their last two matches but thanks to shaky runs by teams below them, relegation isn’t a concern anymore. Their three defeats in five have come against London sides and they will be glad to have finished that run. Coming into this one, they suffered a 2-0 loss away to Crystal Palace. That was the third time in five that they conceded more than a goal. Meanwhile, three of their last five matches have had over 2.5 goals. Apart from the 4-1 win over Leeds United, Bournemouth haven't had a great scoring run lately. They’ve managed more than a goal in just that game, and failed to score in two of the last five. Three home losses in five don’t place them well coming into this game.

Manchester United recovered from two straight losses with a 2-0 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers in their last game. It was a good breather for them, returning home after two straight away defeats. That was also their first time scoring after failing in the earlier two. Their chase for a top four spot means they can’t afford to drop a lot of points now. Leading fifth placed Liverpool by a point, United need five additional points to secure Champions League football. United have the lowest goal difference among the top six teams and that could also work against them. One other factor that has worked against United is their away form. In the last five away matches they haven't registered a win inside normal time. The visitors have also failed to score in four of their last five away matches, losing three.
