Bournemouth vs Watford Prediction & Betting Tips - Premier League
by James | in Premier League Predictions
The early Sunday fixture in the Premier League sees two clubs battling relegation take each other on. Hosts Bournemouth are in 18th place and one point from safety, while visitors Watford are 19th and two points away from said safe zone. The Cherries are in desperate need of results to curb an awful run that has seen them plummet down the table. Eight defeats from their last ten games have piled a serious amount of pressure on Eddie Howe's side, the most recent being a humiliating 4-0 loss at West Ham. The rate of goals being shipped is alarming as is the inability to score at the other end of the pitch. Bournemouth have failed to score in five of their last seven Premier League games. The last time main forward Callum Wilson scored was back in September when Bournemouth were flying high in third place after a bright start to the season. They need him firing again.
Watford, meanwhile, are one of the form teams in the top flight, currently on the third-best run in the division behind Liverpool and Man City. Tha's due mainly to a new manager bounce that they're enjoying since Nigel Pearson took charge. In that time, they've beaten the likes of Manchester United and Wolves. The upsurge has been down, in large part, to a returning belief to the dressing room that has led to stellar performances from the likes of Deulofeu, Sarr and Doucouré. If Watford can keep this run up then they will continue to climb the table. We see that coming at Bournemouth's expense this weekend. The Hornets are likelier to win here and are a worthwhile double chance bet.
