Bournemouth vs Wolves FA Cup Prediction Match Details
The FA Cup continues its entertaining action on Saturday at noon as top-four chasing Bournemouth welcome relegation-battling Wolverhampton to the Vitality Stadium in the FA Cup fifth round. Can the Wanderers deliver another bold statement at the Vitality for the second time in a week?
Bournemouth Preview & Form
Bournemouth will come into the fifth round of the FA Cup on the back of a poor run of form as they are currently on a two-match losing streak in the Premier League with three goals conceded during the run. Last weekend, the Cherries suffered a 1-0 defeat to Wolverhampton Wanderers at the Vitality Stadium and then followed it up with a midweek 2-1 loss to south coast rivals Brighton and Hove Albion at the AMEX Stadium. Andoni Iraola will be desperate for his side to get back to winning ways now as they eye reaching the quarterfinal of the FA Cup competitions. However, they have been in good form since the start of the competitions, having scored two goals in each of their games. They secured their path to the fifth round by beating Everton 2-0 in the previous round at Goodison Park.
Wolves Preview & Form
Wolverhampton will come into the fifth round of the FA Cup with high hopes of replicating their 1-0 victory over Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium last weekend thanks to Matheus Cunha’s incredible first-half strike. However, they were beaten 2-1 by Fulham in their midweek Premier League game at the Craven Cottage Stadium, with the result keeping them in the relegation battle zone. Vitor Pereira’s side has now lost two of their last matches across all competitions, with both defeats coming in the Premier League. They have shown a huge mentality in the FA Cup by scoring two goals in each of their games this season. The last time out in the competition in the previous round, Vitor Pereira’s side claimed a 2-0 victory over Championship side Blackburn.
