The Saturday matchday of the 36th round of the English Premier League will commence with a clash in London, where the local Arsenal will host Bournemouth at the Emirates Stadium. Here's the prediction for this encounter from the expert team at Dailysports.
Arsenal
The Gunners, in contrast to Liverpool, are still in the title race and have favorable odds to claim the golden medals. However, it's worth acknowledging that everything currently lies in Manchester City's hands, who, despite trailing by just one point in the league table, have a game in hand. Last weekend, Arsenal faced a challenging away fixture against Tottenham. Despite leading 3-0 by halftime, they caused some nervous moments for their supporters in the second half, conceding two goals. This victory marked the third consecutive win for Mikel Arteta's side. Regarding their home record, Arsenal has lost only two matches out of 17, securing 13 victories.
Bournemouth
Under the guidance of Andoni Iraola, the team had a very rough start and found themselves in the relegation zone. However, they managed to climb out of the bottom of the table at the end of the previous calendar year, registering six wins in seven Premier League matches. The Cherries have ascended to mid-table, currently occupying the 10th position with 48 points. In the last round, Bournemouth hosted Brighton, clinching a comfortable 3-0 victory. This win marked their second consecutive triumph in five matches. In terms of their away statistics, the Cherries have secured six victories in 17 matches, suffering defeat on eight occasions.
