Bournemouth v Swansea Betting Tips
Bournemouth have managed to put the halt to the big skid that they were on, which saw them drift perilously close to the drop zone. They have taken four points in their last two games and rolled out a 3-2 home win over West Ham last weekend, and they missed two penalties in the game as well. So that snapped a five match winless streak that they were on at the Vitality in the Premier League. Bournemouth have posted a W6 D3 L5 record on home soil in the league this season and this would be a big three points for them to pull further away from trouble. The Cherries have scored two or more goals in six of their last seven matches against Swansea including in this season’s 3-0 win at the Liberty Stadium back on New Year’s Eve. Bournemouth last won back to back league games a year ago, but they will have appeal in this one and a Bournemouth 2-1 correct score at William Hill is a price of 17/2. Bournemouth have dropped 18 points from winning positions this season in the Premier League; more than any other side. They have won eight, drawn three and lost four of the 15 league games they have held a lead in. Josh King is in form at the moment and he has netted three goals in three Premier League appearances against Swansea is 8/5 in the anytime goalscorer market.
Swansea have had a rough season out on the road in the top flight where they have posted a W3 D1 L10 record on their travels. They have gone W2 L3 in their last five out on the road but they are on a three match losing streak away from the Liberty. Swansea though have scored in each of their last five away games and both teams to score at William Hill is a price of 4/7. Swansea’s overall form reads W3 D1 L10 this season and they have gone W2 L4 in their last six on the road. The Welsh outfit have claimed three wins from their last six visits to Bournemouth though in all competitions (D1 L2) but they lost there in the league last season. Gylfi Sigurdsson is a 7/4 anytime goalscorer option for them. Their defeat at Hull last weekend will not give punters much faith in their ability to turn around their away form in this one. 79% of Swansea’s away games this season have gone over the 2.5 goal line and over 2.5 goals in this one at William Hill is trading at a price of 7/10. Swansea’s shots-to-goals ratio has improved to 16.1% under Paul Clement, it was at 9.6% before he took over this season.

Bournemouth v Swansea Predictions
Bournemouth home win: The Cherries have been a defensive mess lately, that’s no secret, and even though the Swans have been producing wins, they have been at home and they keep collapsing out on the road. Bournemouth can take advantage of that by securing the win.
