Football – England – Premier League Betting Tips

Sunday’s early lunchtime kick-off features Bournemouth taking on Arsenal at Dean Court with the home side looking to extend their unbeaten run in the Premier League to four matches following some recent encouraging results for Eddie Howe’s boys.

Draws with West Ham and Brighton either side of a 2-1 home win over Everton have helped lift The Cherries out of the bottom three, but nevertheless, they still be facing a tough encounter against Arsenal here today, and even more so when looking deeper into Bournemouth’s home record.

Although Bournemouth hold an improved record of  3-3-5  14/17, which includes wins over Brighton, Huddersfield Town and Everton, they’ve lost all three matches against top six sides, Manchester City, Chelsea and Liverpool, and a visit from Arsenal may also be too much.

Onto Arsenal, and they sit in sixth place and two points behind their north London rivals, Tottenham, ahead of this weekend’s action, and Arsenal bring a seven match unbeaten run with them to the south coast for this important clash.

Arsenal have registered wins over Newcastle United and Crystal Palace, but five draws are too many stalemates for a side that are pushing for a top four finish this season – anything less, and the murmers of discontent will grow louder with Wenger’s position at the club becoming increasingly fragile.

However, Arsenal have improved on the road of late as they’re unbeaten in their last five amidst an overall record of  3-4-4  13/16 which shows how bad a start they made to the new season on their travels!

Bournemouth will be on the front foot at home, and this will create plenty of chances for Arsenal to use their pace and quality on the counter.
