- Competition: Premier League
- Date: 5th December 2024
- Kick-off: 20:15 UTC / 21:15 CET
- Venue: Vitality Stadium
Bournemouth will be looking to continue their impressive form at the Vitality Stadium in the Premier League this season when they host Spurs on Thursday night.
The Cherries went into the 13th round of fixtures last weekend hoping to turn their fortunes around after back-to-back league defeats and achieved that with flying colours. Andoni Iraola's side scored four times while conceding just two against Wolves last time out and will fancy their chances of taking at least a point against Spurs. Bournemouth lost their last home game 2-1 but had a good run at the ground before that, beating Southampton, Arsenal and Manchester City.
Tottenham Hotspur meanwhile are one of the most inconsistent sides in the English top flight at the moment. After being hailed for their dominant 4-0 win over Manchester City a fortnight ago, the Lilywhites drew with Roma in the Europa League and couldn't beat Fulham last weekend. And with the win over the Cityzens the only victory for Ange Postecoglou's men in their last four away games, Thursday could prove to be another difficult day for Spurs fans.
Bournemouth vs Tottenham Hotspur Betting Tips: Over 2.5 goals
While Bournemouth have been scoring goals for fun in recent weeks despite the departure of Solanke in the summer, they have plenty of issues defensively with the Cherries boasting just one clean sheet in the Premier League this season. None of their last four outings produced less than four goals.
Tottenham Hotspur don’t also have a defence one can rely on right now. The finished just one of their last seven league games without conceding and shipped averagely two goals per game in their last four away fixtures.
