Wolves vs Bournemouth Prediction & Betting Tips - Premier League

Prediction published on 13/12/2018, 00:45  by Daniel Ngulu in Premier League Predictions

Five losses in the last six matches have left Bournemouth way off the top four, despite their quality and early season ambition. They can’t be blamed though for the tough luck; the team has had to play Manchester City, Manchester United, Arsenal and Liverpool in the period, and lost all four as well as one which was considered winnable, against Newcastle. They have only managed to beat Huddersfield Town in the last six outings, picking three points from a possible 18. Before their slump, Bournemouth had picked 10 points from a possible 12 in four matches as they went through a six – match unbeaten run. It is not going to get any easier for them, with matches against Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United still lurking in the near future but for now they can focus on Wolves, with an aim of stopping them after two straight wins, one of them against Chelsea. A run of four matches in the span of 11 days will definitely not help Bournemouth’s cause and for this reason alone, they need to toughen up for the Wolves game. For the second time in 12 matches, they failed to score in the 4 – 0 loss to Liverpool, but there’s no denying their prowess in attack, led by Callum Wilson, who is on eight goals. Wolves have a better defensive record compared to Bournemouth, having conceded 19 in 16 matches, seven lesser than Bournemouth’s tally but Bournemouth have scored more – 25, which is eight more than Wolves’ tally. Six of Bournemouth’s seven away league matches have ended in over 2.5 goals while they have scored in each of the last four away league matches. On the other hand, Wolves have conceded in each of the last four league matches at home, while two have yielded over 2.5 goals. These teams have met just twice in history and on both occasions, Bournemouth have won.
