Bournemouth, just like Newcastle's first opponent, failed to capitalise on the attacking opportunities they created. This fact gives Newcastle a good chance to take three points from the south coast of England. After all, they aim to return to the Champions League.
Bournemouth spent significantly in this off-season, buying players for £127 million, but the newcomers have yet to yield positive results. Central midfielder Alex Scott has been the standout player, receiving high praise from various experts. The draw came from Antoine Semenyo, now in his third season with Bournemouth. Overall, Bournemouth didn’t look better than Nottingham. They generated an xG of 1.53 but scored only once, though they had a second goal disallowed for offside. Against Newcastle, the hosts will likely be on the defensive.
Newcastle can be described as resilient. They withstood Southampton's pressure, playing more than an hour with ten men following Fabian Schär's red card. They scored from three shots, with one on target. It was unusual for them to have so little possession, but they passed the test. The winning goal came from Joelinton, who will also be a key attacking threat at the Vitality Stadium.
These clubs have only met 13 times in history. Bournemouth has three wins, Newcastle has five, and there have been five draws. The most recent match was high-scoring (2:2), but only five out of the 13 games have seen more than three goals. Similarly, last season, 13 out of 19 matches at the Vitality Stadium featured no more than three goals. This included a 2:0 win for Newcastle. We believe they will not surpass their usual scoring rate in this game either.
