Bournemouth vs Aston Villa Preview & Prediction
Unai Emery’s high-flying Villans head down south off the back of a European victory on Sunday afternoon, where they’ll face off against Premier League survival hopefuls Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium.
Villa confirmed their position in the Conference League knockout stages with a victory over Legia Warsaw on Thursday night – a win that propelled them to the top of Group E, and extended their winning streak to four successive matches.
Their excellent run of form has seen them lose just twice in the league since the start of September, and means that they occupy fourth place in the table heading into gameweek 14, meanwhile the Cherries sit in a lowly-16th.
It’s not all doom and gloom for the south coast club however, as they enjoyed a strong November with wins over Newcastle and Sheffield United and are now seven points clear of the drop zone heading into December.
No more than three goals have been scored at the Vitality in Bournemouth’s last four outings in all competitions so we at SportsLens expect a fairly tight affair, but are backing the visitors to narrowly edge the tie to maintain their position in the Champions League spots.
Prediction: Bournemouth 1-2 Aston Villa
Bournemouth vs Aston Villa Betting Tips
- Aston Villa To Win & Both Teams To Score @ 12/5
- Moussa Diaby To Score Anytime @ 2/1
- Combined Bet Builder Odds @ 6/1
Bournemouth vs Aston Villa Betting Tip 1: Aston Villa To Win & Both Teams To Score @ 12/5
Our first tip for your Sunday afternoon Bournemouth vs Aston Villa Premier League bet builder is to back the Villans to reign victorious with both teams getting on the scoresheet, priced at 12/5 by leading UK bookmakers.
As previously alluded to, the Villans are in excellent form with four wins from their last four matches, meanwhile Bournemouth have lost four of their last seven – including three of their last five home matches.
What the Cherries have done though, is score in all of their last six matches. This includes against Liverpool, Manchester City and Newcastle, therefore they have pedigree in terms of netting at least once in matches against top sides.
We at SportsLens are backing the hosts to get on the scoresheet during Sunday afternoon’s showdown to extend that record to seven, but are backing the Villans to bag the three points come the full time whistle.
Bournemouth vs Aston Villa Betting Tip 2: Moussa Diaby To Score Anytime @ 2/1
Emery and his coaching staff are sweating over the fitness of Ollie Watkins ahead of the clash on the south coast, and if he is unavailable – other members of the squad will have to step up in order to replicate his goalscoring output.
A person who did that in Watkins’ absence on Thursday night was Moussa Diaby, as the Frenchman bagged against Legia after just four minutes into the tie while partnering Jhon Duran in attack.
The goal was just his fourth of the campaign, with his last in the English top flight coming against Luton near the end of October.
At 2/1, you can back the ex-Bayer Leverkusen forward to build on his first European goal of the season by scoring at anytime at the Vitality Stadium on Sunday.
