Tottenham v Bournemouth Betting Preview – Premier League 14th October 3.00pm

Spurs have been gathering pace in their title challenge recently with three wins in their last four and they will be expected to have a comfortable time of things at Wembley when they play host to Bournemouth. Spurs have produced well against the Cherries in recent league meetings and with Bournemouth struggling in the relegation zone with just the four points on the board for the season, this may be easy pickings for Tottenham. Spurs start the weekend five points behind the top two and need to keep up momentum.

Tottenham v Bournemouth Betting Tips

After a bit of a slow start to the season from Spurs who won just one of their opening three games, they have improved to a great W3 D1 record in their last four outings in the Premier League. Each of the wins in that sequence were away from home as well making it even more impressive. They have picked up a clean sheet in three of their last four games now and Tottenham to win to nil at bet365 brings in a nice price of 20/21 which is likely going to have stacks of appeal for this fixture. Spurs should cruise to a win in this one and comfortably so and given how many goals that they have put past Bournemouth recently, a Tottenham -2 Handicap for the match at a price of 5/4. The Lilywhites have twelve goals in their previous four against the Cherries.

Last Four Premier League Head to Head

Spurs 4 – 0 Bournemouth
Bournemouth 0 – 0 Tottenham
Tottenham 3- 0 Bournemouth
Bournemouth 1 – 5 Tottenham

So Tottenham do have the form against Bournemouth and in the bet365 correct score market, you are going to find some really nice appealing options to consider. A Spurs 3-0 correct score is a 7/1 punt while a 4-0 victory for them is a 10/1 shot. While they should win this at a canter, they go to Real Madrid in the Champions League in midweek so may ease off the gas if they get themselves comfortably ahead in this one. When it comes to Tottenham goals there is only one man worth mentioning and that, of course, is Harry Kane who is the 9/5 bet356 first goalscorer outright favorite. Kane has scored a Premier League brace in three of his last four games. Kane also has scoring form against Bournemouth too with six in three games against the Cherries and Kane is 6/5 to score two or more goals in the game. Spurs are still looking for their first league home win of the season (D2 L1) and it’s likely to happen here.

Current League Form (most recent last)

Bournemouth have had a tough season as they haven’t been delivering enough of a threat going forward and have stayed shaky at the back. Their lack of output hasn’t been helped because of having missed Callum Wilson (who looks close to returning) and Josh King remains doubtful for this one. They are running at 15/4 in the anytime goalscorer market. Bournemouth lost their opening four league games of the season, but they have improved to take four points from their last three games, courtesy of a home win over Everton and a draw on home soil with Leicester. But their away form makes for some poor reading as they have lost all three on the road and have just the one away goal to their name as well. Are they going to have enough punch to challenge Spurs at Wembley?

They don’t have previous Premier League form going against the Lilywhites either. They have faced Spurs four times before in the Premier league and from that they have collected only the one point and they haven’t hit the back of the net against the Lilywhites in any of them. Both teams not to score at bet365 fetches a price of 4/5. Bournemouth have lost six of their eight games (D2) away at top-seven teams in the Premier League since the start of last season. The Cherries shipped at least three goals in each of those six defeats in that sequence as well. The only thing that is likely to give them a relatively comfortable afternoon is if Spurs take their foot off the gas if they get themselves ahead. Either way, the Cherries are likely to come away empty handed.

Tottenham v Bournemouth Predictions

Spurs to win: This looks like a banker for Spurs here. They have piled twelve goals past Bournemouth in the last three league meetings with them and can add to that in this one. A Spurs 2-0 correct score has appeal, just because this is after the international break and with Spurs having an eye on the Champions League in midweek where they go to Real Madrid.
