Manchester City vs Bournemouth Prediction
The Etihad Stadium is quite the fortress for Manchester City, who have won all 14 of their home games this calendar year. Pep Guardiola’s side also boasts a 100% record against Saturday’s opponents, Bournemouth, having won all 12 of their previous meetings.
The Cherries have had a struggling start to their Premier League return under Spanish coach Andoni Iraola. However, they earned their first league win of the season last weekend against Burnley and will be aiming to build on that from here on.
Achieving consecutive wins here will be a formidable task though, given Man City’s remarkable record against sides that start the day placed in the bottom four of the table (48 wins and 5 draws).
Bournemouth are currently winless on the road this season, and it’s difficult to believe that will change on Saturday.
Prediction: Manchester City 4-0 Bournemouth
Manchester City vs Bournemouth Betting Tips
- Man City Half Time/Full Time @4/9
- Erling Haaland To Score 2+ @7/5
- Combined Bet Builder Odds: 13/8
Erling Haaland’s incredible goalscoring prowess is evident, having bagged 47 goals in just 45 Premier League games. Remarkably, that is two more than Bournemouth’s tally of 45 goals in 48 games since the beginning of last season.
The Norwegian sensation is on the verge of setting a new record for the fewest matches needed to reach 50 Premier League goals. A hattrick on Saturday would see him smash that record, but with the Champions League fixtures returning midweek, Guardiola might be reluctant to give him the 90 minutes.
For that reason, we are backing the brace, but seeing as Haaland has scored five Premier League hattricks already, we wouldn’t put you off backing him to score three.
