Man City vs Bournemouth preview Manchester City clash with high-flying Bournemouth in one of the most one-sided fixtures in Premier League history.
Why? Well, Bournemouth have lost 15 of their 16 Premier League games against Pep Guardiola’s side – including all eight of their top-flight visits to the Etihad.
But it no longer looks like a straightforward three points for the Cityzens.
The Cherries are currently in the dizzy heights of second place with 18 points from nine matches (W5, D3) – their best start to a top-flight campaign.
It’s also worth noting that manager Andoni Iraola’s side sit just four points off leaders Arsenal, and he’s achieved that despite losing four members of his starting back five from last season.
Bournemouth are on the longest unbeaten run of any current Premier League side, going without defeat in eight games since their opening-day loss at Liverpool (W5, D3).
So, despite being available at just 1/2, this is a difficult assignment for Manchester City – especially considering they’ve already lost three Premier League games this season.
The hosts saw their nine-match unbeaten run come to a halt away to Aston Villa in their last league outing, but returned to winning ways in the Carabao Cup against Swansea with a raft of changes.

Man City vs Bournemouth preview betting tips and predictions Upset? Would it really be that much of an upset to see in-form Bournemouth beat Manchester City?
In any case, we’re backing them to leave the Etihad with at least a point, with Double Chance available at a tempting 6/4 with William Hill.
As mentioned, Bournemouth are on the longest unbeaten run of any current Premier League side, going without defeat in eight games since their opening-day loss at Liverpool (W5, D3).
They also, perhaps unsurprisingly, boast the fifth-highest expected goals from open play (4.00) away from home, and can take confidence from their 2-1 win at the Vitality Stadium last season.
It’s also no secret that City have been relying heavily on talisman Erling Haaland – and though he’s delivered, of the 23 sides the Norwegian has faced in the competition, only against Newcastle (447) does he have a worse minutes-per-goal average than he does against Bournemouth, scoring just once in 439 minutes against the Cherries.

Goals It looks as though goals will be guaranteed on Sunday, so we’re backing over 3.5 goals at 13/10 with William Hill.
Bournemouth don’t really do dull away games. Of their five competitive away fixtures this season, there have been a total of 22 goals scored – including a 3-3, 2-2 and 4-2.
And that’s no fluke. Although the Cherries rank fifth for expected goals (xG) away from home, they also sit third for expected goals conceded – behind only Burnley and Manchester United.
That should see both sides among the goals, especially considering City have netted 10 league goals at home and boast the highest xG of any Premier League club.
