Man City vs Bournemouth betting tips and summary

Man City to win – strong H2H record at home

Erling Haaland to score anytime – excellent recent form

Antoine Semenyo to have 1+ shots on target – great trend in recent matches + great matchup

The Etihad Stadium plays host to a clash between two sides having excellent seasons, as Bournemouth travel to face Man City on Sunday afternoon.

City enter this game after a poor 1-0 defeat against Aston Villa at Villa Park, where Pep Guardiola’s side just struggled to establish themselves in the match.

Sunday’s match highlighted that City still has an Achilles heel against top sides away from home, whilst also showcasing a lack of creativity against top defences on the road as well.

Guardiola and his team will look to bounce back in front of their home faithful, as Liverpool’s recent struggles have made the EPL title race as open as ever.

Under Andoni Iraola, Bournemouth have well and truly embraced the Spaniard’s press-oriented and high-energy-based style.

Despite the departures of Dean Huijsen, Milos Kerkez, and Ilya Zabarnyi in the summer, the Cherries have taken the next step in their exciting project, with a reliance on youth and offensive dynamism.

Sunday’s clash provides another stern test for the visitors, who will look to put on another excellent performance against one of the top-flight’s most successful teams.
