Prediction, Odds & Betting Tips for Tottenham vs Bournemouth at English Premier League
There is not much time for the Spurs to recover from the previous challenges as they already have to host Bournemouth, who is in excellent shape these days. This will be a huge test for Ange Postecoglu’s team, which has been dealing with injuries for quite a while. As for the Cherries, they are displaying excellent football these days and come to London to add another scalp to their collection.
Tottenham
The Spurs had an exhausting clash against Brighton and, after a short time, must endure another challenge. But that’s nothing strange when playing in the English Premier League. We all know that this is the hardest competition in the world.
Up until that event, Tottenham looked very good, posting three victories in a row and scoring eight goals throughout that stretch. Some players managed to recover, but when we look at the Spurs’ injury list, it is still by far the longest in the entire Premiership.
Despite having a crisis during November, the Spurs are still in the competition for the title and are competitive no matter all the injuries and problems they face. Their resilience is impressive, and we need to credit Postecoglu for that.
Bournemouth
The Cherries are in excellent shape. They haven’t lost for the past seven games, winning six of them and displaying the most attractive performances of all since the start of November.
Dominic Solanke is playing the football of his life, with him splashing goals regularly and reaching the second spot in the Golden Boot race list with 13 hits, one fewer than Erling Haaland.
During this excellent row, the Cherries have scored 18 times and are currently on a four-game winning streak, during which they kept three clean sheets. As stated earlier, Bournemouth is one of the top three teams in the Premiership through November and December.
Tottenham: Vicario; Porro, Romero, Davies, Udogie; Skipp, Sarr; Johnson, Kulusevski, Son; Richarlison
Bournemouth: Neto; Smith, Zabarnyi, Senesi, Ouattara; Christie, Scott; Kluivert, Billing, Tavernier; Solanke

These two sides have already met this season in late August. Back then, Tottenham was triumphant on the road as they defeated the rivals with 0-2.
During the previous season, both teams managed to post victories away from home with the same result, 2-3.
This will be a highly interesting matchup because Bournemouth comes flying high while Tottenham is also on the rise. On top of that, these teams aren’t playing defensive football but quite the opposite, always trying to score and attack regardless of the result. So, three or more goals look like a perfect pick.
Our verdict: Over 2.5 goals
