The two bottom teams in the Premier League will clash against one another in a fight to avoid the relegation on Saturday, when Norwich will play host to Bournemouth. Norwich have been stuck at the bottom of the standings for quite a while now, while Bournemouth have been equally bad lately.

Bournemouth (5-12-5) were not very good in their home match against Watford last week, where they conceded two second-half goals to eventually lose by 3-0. They have now lost three in a row while conceding multiple goals in each match, and are win-less in their last five league matches (0-4-1). As a result they have now dropped to the penultimate spot of the league table with 20 points, two below the red line. Oddly enough, they have gather as many points on the road as they have at home (3-7-1).

Norwich (3-14-5) actually played a solid game last week in Manchester, but were eventually destroyed by 0-4 in the hands of United, in what wasn’t a very bad much on their part. Prior to that they had back to back draws against Crystal Palace and Tottenham at home. Norwich are now win-less in their last nine league matches (0-5-4) and it is natural that they are stuck at the bottom with just 14 points. Most of their points have come from home matches (2-6-3), but they still concede a ton of goals at home.

The two teams split the points in a goal-less draw in the first round, and it is Norwich who barely have the upper hand in this match-up over the years (3-2-3). And they are undefeated as hosts against Bournemouth over the years (1-0-2). This is an “eat-or-be-eaten” type of situation and this match can easily go to Over 2.5 Goals.
