Bournemouth
Match Time & Date:
30 March 2024
15:00
Prediction: 2-2
Everton
Buoyed by a thrilling 4-3 win over Luton Town, Bournemouth will be aiming to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they face Everton on Matchday 30. The Cherries are eyeing a top-ten finish, but they will have to be at their sharpest in the season finale in order to meet the goal. All Senesi, Kelly, and Hill are major doubts, while Max Aarons remains on the sidelines with a hamstring problem.
The Toffees, meanwhile, are sitting in the danger zone ahead of Saturday’s encounter. As Everton are desperate to grab something from the match, we believe that there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. Veteran defender Ashley Young is pushing for a recall to the starting XI, while Dutch midfielder Arnaut Danjuma is rated doubtful and he will be assessed ahead of the kick-off. Senegal international Idrissa Gana Gueye should bet fit for the match.
Highlighted Player (Abdoulaye Doucouré):
French international midfielder Abdoulaye Doucour is a bundle of raw energy and a player who was voted Watford’s Player of the Season during the 2017/18 campaign. A deep-lying midfielder who takes part in play build-up from behind is a defensive asset who took time to blossom and announce himself at the international stage. He first burst to prominence at Ligue 1 side Rennes in 2012 after a year with the club’s B side and went on to play 75 league matches and score 12 goals.
Watford bought Doucoure in 2016 but sent him on loan to Granada, where he took part in 15 league matches. Determined to prove his worth in the Premier League, the Frenchman of Mali descent wasted no time in grabbing a starting spot under both Marco Silva and Javi Garcia, respectively, upon his return from Spain.
The total of 38 matches played along with 8 goals scored made Doucoure one of the most sought-after assets in the summer of 2018 but the player remained at Vicarage Road despite reported interest from Tottenham Hotspur.
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.
