AFC Bournemouth - Brentford predictions

AFC Bournemouth might be heading into this game as firm favourites to get a win but they will have their work cut out for them as Brentford are known to be highly unpredictable and capable of pulling a surprise when it is least expected.

The matchup this Saturday is rather one-sided, with The Bees seen as the clear underdogs. Most bookmakers online have priced their victory at 3.51, which is enough to doubt such an outcome will happen.

The Cherries’s previous Premier League match did not go their way, but not even the most stubborn fans would have predicted a different result against a team as strong as Arsenal . They played as visitors, and the top online bookmakers priced an away win at 14.00. They never recovered from some early concessions, and the score was brought to a conclusive 3:0 result before the end.

The Bees had their work cut out for them as they entered the previous game. The 3.47 odds were somewhat favourable, but most of the advantage can be chalked up to the fact that they were playing at home. The two teams ended up in a deadlock for most of the runtime, and the match ended with a 0:0 draw.

AFC Bournemouth have displayed rather inconsistent defensive play in their previous outings. Specifically, their previous 3 away games have been marked by more than 5 conceded goals. They may be at home this time, but such records usually highlight deeper issues than a home-field disadvantage.

Brentford have a very strong track record when it comes to scoring in away games – 8 goals in their previous 3 games, to be specific. An Over 4.5 Bet is not often a good idea, but it might be time to consider one.

Neither team has been able to secure a conclusive finish in this matchup throughout the season. They clashed more than once in the past year and recorded several draws despite Bournemouth being seen as the favourites.

An Over 2.5 Goals is a great bet if you like staying on the safe side. The betting value for this market is strong compared even to the 1.50, which makes this an easy betting prediction to make.
