On Saturday, at 15:00, Bournemouth receives Burnley‘s visit in a 33rd round of the Premier League. Eddie Howe’s “Cheerleaders” had a modest season, in which only the form on their own ground has relieved them of the relegation emotions. But Sudgers have a modest balance lately and are not 100% sure of rescue!
It is possible to witness a spectacular game, having in mind that in each of the previous five direct matches at least three goals scored. In addition, five of the last six duels have scored both bands, with the exception of the tournament, ending 4-0 for Burnley. It was a football demonstration from hosts who took advantage of Eddie Howe’s defensive defenses. Bournemouth’s manager has a modest balance in the games played against Sean Dyche, and Burnley’s coach has only two failures in nine games so far! It could be an important detail in the tactical preparation of the game.
Bournemouth has been tackling the weekend without Cook, Francis, Surman and Smith, while Burnley does not know if he can rely on injury and Defnor and Lennon (uncertain). Overall, Burnley has a team able to cope with Dean Court, but the hosts have high-quality strikers, such as Joshua King and Callum Wilson. Bournemouth is on 12th place (43-58 goals) and has 38 points, 10 over relegation line. Burnley is 17th (37-59 Golaver) and has five points more than Cardiff, the first underground team.
On their own ground, The Cherries boasts 7 wins and only 4 failures in 16 games, while Burnley has only three victories in the field, where he rather likes a defensive game. Even if there were less than three goals scored in 4 of the previous six rounds played by Bournemouth, this time we expect numerous occasions on both sides, especially as Burnley has a good history against this opponent, and the white-sighted have need as many points as the final of the season.
There are two bloody attacks and two hesitant defenses, and the guests have a good morale after winning with Wolverhampton last round (2-0). Before this match, Burnley suffered four consecutive defeats with Leicester (1-2), Liverpool (2-4), Crystal Palace (1-3) and Newcastle United (0-3). Bournemouth comes after Leicester’s 0-2 defeat, but a draw with Newcastle (2-2) and a vital victory over Huddersfield (2-0). It was the only success in the last 8 stages!
