Bournemouth started their season also with defeat to one the favorites Manchester United, 1-3. However, Bournemouth was showing nice football and offered a battle to such notable opponents. The Cherries had quite successful pre-season, taking three wins and three defeats in six sparring matches this summer.
The opponents have met only four times in past 20 years. Three of these matches ended with wins of the Hammers and one win of Bournemouth last season at West Ham. The hosts definitely remember that 3-4 loss to Cherries and would want to revenge it in upcoming clash.
Prediction for the match: West Ham to win.
