Bournemouth vs Fulham

Current streaks

Recent form

Bournemouth

Bournemouth's recent form has been somewhat disappointing, with the Cherries failing to secure a victory in their last six matches across all competitions. They've drawn three and lost three during this period, including a narrow FA Cup exit to Manchester City. Despite their 10th position in the league, Bournemouth have struggled defensively, conceding at least one goal in each of their last nine games and averaging 1.83 goals conceded per match in their last six outings. Interestingly, both teams have scored in all of their recent fixtures, and 83% of these games have seen over 2.5 goals, indicating a trend towards high-scoring encounters. The Cherries have shown resilience in their last two Premier League matches, securing 2-2 draws against West Ham and Tottenham Hotspur, but they'll be keen to end their eight-game winless streak and tighten up their defence to climb further up the table.

Fulham

Fulham's recent form has been a mixed bag, with the Cottagers struggling to find consistency. Despite their 8th place position in the league, they have won only two of their last six matches across all competitions. Their most recent outing was a thrilling 3-2 victory over Liverpool, showcasing their ability to compete with top-tier opposition. However, this win came on the heels of two consecutive losses, including a heavy 3-0 defeat to Crystal Palace in the FA Cup. Fulham's defence has been leaky, conceding 10 goals in six matches, with only one clean sheet. Their matches tend to be high-scoring affairs, with 67% of games seeing over 2.5 goals. The team's goal difference of -2 over this period suggests they are struggling to outscore opponents consistently, despite averaging 1.33 goals per game themselves.

Recent home/away form

Bournemouth

Bournemouth's recent home form has been alarmingly poor, with the Cherries failing to secure a victory in their last six matches at the Vitality Stadium. The team are currently on a concerning run of five consecutive home defeats across all competitions, a streak that has seen them concede twice in four of those losses. Bournemouth have struggled to find the back of the net, scoring only four goals in their last six home games, whilst their defence has been leaky, conceding 10 goals in the same period. Despite their mid-table position in the Premier League, their home performances have been far from convincing, with no clean sheets kept and an average of 1.67 goals conceded per game. The lack of high-scoring matches is notable, with an even split between games going over and under 2.5 goals, suggesting a struggle to dominate opponents on their own turf.

Fulham

Fulham's recent away form has been a mixed bag, with the Cottagers experiencing a notable run of three consecutive victories before stumbling in their last two outings. Despite their current 8th position in the league, Fulham have shown resilience on the road, scoring in all six of their recent away matches. Their attacking prowess is evident, netting 1.5 goals per game, whilst their defence has been somewhat leaky, conceding 1.33 goals per match. Interestingly, both teams have scored in 100% of these fixtures, contributing to a high-scoring average of 2.83 total goals per game. The lack of clean sheets and the fact that 83% of these matches have seen over 2.5 goals suggest that Fulham's away games are typically entertaining affairs for neutral supporters, with goals almost guaranteed at both ends.
