Bournemouth vs Leicester Preview & Prediction
Bournemouth have struggled in the Premier League lately with no wins in their last five games and now they face off with Leicester City in the FA Cup.
The Cherries cruised through to the fifth round of the cup following a 5-0 thrashing over Swansea last time out, where they earned a match against a third Championship side of the year.
Despite Leicester being ranked below Bournemouth in the football league system Leicester should provide a tough test for their Premier League opponents on Tuesday.
The Foxes look almost certain to return to the top flight next year after an almost faultless season so far that has Leicester six points clear of their nearest rival at the top of the table.
Although they have been flying in the second division this year Leicester have lost consecutive games in the league for just the second time so far this season.
Prediction: Bournemouth 1-1 Leicester
Bournemouth vs Leicester Betting Tips

- Enes Unal to score anytime: 13/8
- Combined Bet Builder Odds: 14/1
Bournemouth vs Leicester Betting Tip 1: BTTS & Draw: 15/4
Most FA Cup bookmakers have Bournemouth as marginal favourites to win their fifth round tie on Tuesday night, with the Premier League side priced at 8/13 to win.
We are backing things to end level this week in the cup with the Cherries and Foxes expected to play out a close game on the South coast to kick off the fifth round.
Both teams have scored in four of Bournemouth’s last five games and the same selection has come in for Leicester in four of six of their previous matches.
Bournemouth vs Leicester Betting Tip 2: Enes Unal To Score Anytime: 13/8
Our second tip is for Enes Unal to score at anytime at 13/8. Unal has made just three appearances for Bournemouth this season since signing from Getafe at the beginning of Summer.
Although he is yet to score for the Cherries, Unal appeared off the bench for Bournemouth last week and looked impressive as a substitute so the FA Cup could be a good chance for the Turkish forward to score.
With Andoni Iraola expected to give the likes of Unal a chance on Tuesday night, the fifth round could be a perfect chance for bench players such as himself to make a case for starting against Burnley on Sunday.
