Arsenal vs Bournemouth Prediction & Tips
Arsenal go into this clash without any league qualification targets: Mikel Arteta’s side’s full attention is on the Champions League. After the narrow defeat at home to PSG (0:1) in the first leg of the semi-final, the upcoming clash against Bournemouth seems more of an unnecessary burden in an already tight schedule. Both players and coaching staff are focusing all their energies on the second leg in Paris, which will decide whether this season will be truly historic or whether, once again, the Londoners will be without trophies.
So far, in the history of meetings between Arsenal and Bournemouth, the Cherries have never managed to beat the Gunners twice in the same Premier League season. However, that could change: if Andoni Iraola’s side can take all three points at the Emirates, they will write their name into the club’s history. In the first round, Bournemouth already won 2-0 at home. On that day, the Gunners were a man down from the 30th minute after William Saliba was sent off, which had a significant impact on the result.
