Being 10th in the Premier League usually means no relegation worries but that's not quite the case this year. Bournemouth occupy that position going into this weekend's fixtures but are only five points above the relegation zone. The next few weeks are going to be vital for them, pick up a steady stream of points and they'll be ok but lose a few and they could end up in a relegation battle  Form is inconsistent and in their last league game they suffered a 4-1 loss at Huddersfield. Home form has seen them win their last three in a row but before that they had gone four without a win. They score plenty of goals but also concede on a regular basis with only Chelsea failing to net against them in their last 14 league matches.  Newcastle are 13th in the table, two points above the bottom three, but a win here will take them ahead of Bournemouth. Form has picked up in recent weeks with five points from their last three games, including that home win over Manchester United. Away form has seen only one loss in their last four away league matches and that was at league leaders Manchester City. They won two of those four games and have 12 points from their 13 away league games this season. This could be another Bournemouth thriller so go for over 2.5 goals in this match.
