Bournemouth vs Manchester United - Premier League Preview and Odds

April 18th 2018 19:45 – Vitality Stadium

Premier League

After spoiling their neighbour`s party celebrations the week before, Manchester United followed it up by handing them the title on a plate thanks to a home defeat to rock bottom West Bromwich Albion. The loss also gave chasing Liverpool and Spurs a sniff of second place. This weekend the Red Devils make the long journey south to face a Bournemouth side who have won just one of their last five matches.

Eddie Howe`s men were hammered 3-0 at Liverpool in their last league outing, a defeat that put an end to a three-game unbeaten run. They had won one and drawn two prior to that but they have only won one match since February and that came against West Brom.

The Cherries are 10 points clear of the drop zone, so the danger of relegation is slim. However, they will want to finish as high up the table as possible and are still in the race for eighth place. A win here would put them level on points with Newcastle but having played two games more. Their home form has been good with just one defeat in their last eight. However, they did not face a top five team in that spell.

Meanwhile, Manchester United continue to impress and frustrate in equal measures yet are still favourites to finish second in the league. They have won four of their last six matches away from home including back-to-back 3-2 wins at Crystal Palace and Manchester City last time out. However, they have only kept two clean sheets on their last 12 road trips.

Jose Mourinho may have one eye on next week`s FA Cup semi-final against Tottenham, his side`s only remaining hope of a trophy this term but will also be keen not to put their league position in jeopardy as the Old Trafford side seek entry to group stages of the Champions League.

Betting odds and tips

Bournemouth do not have a great home record against the elite teams this season having failed to beat any of the top five. However, they have scored in 13 of their last 14 games, their last blank at home coming back in October.

The away win with over 2.5 goals look good value at 13/10
