Stoke City
Match Time & Date:
19 October 2021
19:45
Prediction: 1-1
Bournemouth
All eyes will be on Bet365 Stadium when Stoke City and Bournemouth face each other at Bet365 Stadium. The Potters are a real force to be reckoned with at home, with the team eyeing their sixth home win of the process. Both Abdallah Sima and Morgan Fox miss out with injuries, but there are no suspended players in the home team. The Cherries, on the other hand, are leading the chase for automatic promotion.
Bournemouth have yet to suffer a loss in the new Championship campaign, but beating Stoke at Bet365 Stadium is easier said than done. Jefferson Lerma should be recalled to the starting XI after returning from international duty, while both Lewis Cook and Junior Stanislas are sidelined with injuries. Anyhow, a close encounter is on the cards at Bet365 Stadium, and we believe that punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on draw.
Highlighted Player (Steven Fletcher):
Steven Fletcher is a professional footballer who plays for Sheffield Wednesday. After ending his loan spell with Marseille, he joined the Owls on a free transfer in July 2016. Steven Fletcher was born in Shrewsbury, England on 26 March, 1987 and he began his youth career at Hibernian.
He made his debut for the Scottish outfit on 10 April, 2004 in a 3-0 win over Kilmarnock. After spending three years at Burnley and Wolverhampton Fletcher signed a four-year deal with Sunderland for a fee of £12 million. The left-footed attacker scored 11 goals in 28 appearances for the Black Cats in the 2012/2013 Premier League campaign and he was struggling in front of goal in the 2013/2014 season, scoring no more than three league goals.
Steven Fletcher was eligible to play for both England and Scotland, but he decided to represent his mother’s home country. Fletcher made his Scotland debut in March 2008, in a friendly against Croatia. He did well to provide an assist for Kenny Miller, who scored the equaliser for the Scotts (1-1).
Highlighted Team (Bournemouth):
Bournemouth are a professional football club that was formed back in 1890. The Cherries secured promotion to the Premier League in the 2015/2016 season, with the team making it to the English top flight for the first time ever.
Bournemouth play their home games at Dean Court and the capacity of the stadium is 11,469.
The Cherries enjoyed a very successful season on their Premier League debut, with the team beating the likes of Chelsea and Manchester United in the national championship. Glenn Murray scored the winner for Bournemouth in the 1-0 win over the capital club at Stamford Bridge and that is probably the greatest victory in the club’s history.
Bournemouth have been participating in the FA Cup since 1913, but they have yet to win the trophy in the prestigious competition. It has to be noted that the club’s original name Boscombe Athletic Football Club was changed to Bournemouth back in 1923 as the club owners wanted the Cherries to be more representative of the district.
