Key Stats

  • Tottenham have dropped points in a massive eight of their last nine home games in the Premier League.
  • Justin Kluivert has scored ten of his 12 Premier League goals in away fixtures for Bournemouth this season.
  • 71% of Tottenham’s home league games this season have produced over 2.5 goals.

Correct score prediction: Tottenham 1-2 Bournemouth

Tottenham have lost a dismal six of their last nine home games in the Premier League and Bournemouth have the tools to do damage in North London. The Cherries have been averaging two goals per away game this season and have lost only one of their last eight top-tier tests on the road.

Pre-game odds and win probability: Cherries are slight favourites

  • HOME: 8/5 (2.60) – 38.5%
  • DRAW: 29/10 (3.90) – 25.6%
  • AWAY: 29/20 (2.45) – 40.8%

*odds from Ladbrokes, subject to change

Tottenham lost 1-0 at AZ Alkmaar in the Europa League on Thursday evening just days after they were beaten in identical manner by Man City (0-1) and the Londoners have just a 38.5% chance of bouncing back here.

Bournemouth have lost three of their last four games in the league, however, the Cherries will travel to the capital as 29/20 favourites on Sunday due to their superior overall record this season. Check out more of our football predictions and Premiere League analysis on our dedicated page.

Tottenham preview: Spurs have defensive issues

Predicted lineup: Vicario (GK), Spence, Gray, Danso, Udogie, Bergvall, Bentancur, Maddison, Johnson, Son, Tel

Player to watch – Justin Kluivert

Dutchman Justin Kluivert has been a potent weapon in attack for Bournemouth this season and the versatile forward has been doing the majority of his good work in away games for the Cherries.

Kluivert is an away-day specialist

Kluivert has scored 12 times in the Premier League this season and a remarkable ten of those goals were notched on the road for Bournemouth. Indeed, only Mohammed Salah (16) has scored more away goals than Kluivert so far, and the 25-year-old could be a handful again when the Cherries visit Tottenham.
