Arsenal succumbed to Manchester City in the Carabao Cup final and lost to Southampton in the FA Cup quarter-final, in both of their domestic matches since their last Premier League game. The Gunners are in danger of a quadruple failure if they can’t beat Bournemouth on Saturday.
However, they enjoyed a successful trip to Lisbon during the week as they defeated Sporting 1-0 in the first leg of their UEFA Champions League quarter-final.
Manager Mikel Arteta’s side now returns to Premier League action at the top of the league table, nine points ahead of Manchester City, who have a game in hand, with just seven games to play.
Bournemouth have had the luxury of a three-week break in the build-up to this match, and they are looking to continue their unbeaten run of Premier League matches.
The Cherries haven’t lost a Premier League game since early January, meaning that they are unbeaten in their last 11.
However, manager Andoni Iraola’s side are winless in five Premier League matches, having drawn all five of them.
What are the best bets for Arsenal vs Bournemouth?
It’s now or never for Arsenal, with the title firmly in their hands and only seven games for Manchester City to close that nine-point deficit.
Arsenal have been in formidable form in all competitions this season – except for the FA Cup – and I expect that to continue in this match.
As much as I think that Bournemouth will provide a stern test, they have lacked quality and have failed to score in three of their last five matches.
Take Arsenal to win to nil and Viktor Gyokeres to score, as the Sweden striker has netted 11 Premier League goals in his debut campaign.
