Arsenal at Bournemouth 12/26/19 - Premier League Picks & Predictions

Two teams that are coming off unsuccessful results last weekend will now lock horns on Boxing Day, when Bournemouth will host Arsenal. Arsenal split the points in a mediocre match against Everton, while Bournemouth played an even worse match against Burnley and lost.

Arsenal (5-5-8) were not at all creative in their away match against Everton and the two teams ended up splitting the points in a goal-less draw. The Gunners have been in miserable shape for quite some time now, winning just once in the past two months (1-4-8). They are now sitting at the bottom half of the league table, at the 11th spot with 23 points and already nine behind the top-four. They haven’t been anything special on the road either (2-3-4) but have lost just once in their seven trips in all competitions (1-1-5).

Bournemouth (5-9-4) played a really awful match against Burnley, actually both teams were pretty bad, but it was Burnley who scored a late goal to take all three points. They have been in terrible form lately, with six losses in their last seven matches (1-6-0). Bournemouth are sitting at the 14th spot of the Premier League with 19 points, just four points above the red line. Things have not been very good at home either (2-4-3), where they have lost three in a row.

Arsenal have the upper hand in this match-up (7-1-1) and have stood strong in this venue too (2-1-1). Both teams are looking to bounce back after some really bad results lately. And Arsenal will now have their new coach on the bench. That is always a reason for the players to perform much better, so I am taking the away win here.
