Prediction: 2-2
Swansea
All eyes will be on Vitality Stadium when Bournemouth and Swansea City go head to head in the Championship round 17. The Cherries are eager to make amends for a shocking loss to Preston, and they are likely to go all guns blazing at the Swans. Despite failing to find the net in the midweek defeat, a man to watch in the home team will be Dominic Solanke, who has netted 11 goals in the Championship so far this season.
All Smith, Stanislas, and Zemura have been struggling with injuries of late, while Brooks should miss out through illness. The Welsh outfit, on the other hand, aim to build on back-to-back wins over Peterborough and Coventry. Since Swansea City will go for a win in Saturday’s clash as well, we believe that there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. Russell Martin should have a full squad to choose from.
