Bournemouth take on the visitors Arsenal in the round 7 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Saturday, September 30th at Vitality Stadium (Bournemouth).
Bournemouth still looks quite viable. The Cherries managed to return to the Premier League in 2022. They had a reasonably good showing in the previous season, initially under Scott Parker and then with Gary O'Neil. However, during the summer, there was a coaching reshuffle, with a focus on Andoni Iraola, a young specialist who had never coached outside of his native Spain. The Basque manager started with a relatively optimistic 1-1 draw against West Ham but then lost to Liverpool and Tottenham, both by a margin of two goals. They only managed to win against Swansea, but that was in the League Cup. However, they later secured draws against Brentford and even Chelsea, with Brighton being the only formidable opponent they lost to, with a score of 1-3. They later made amends by defeating Stoke City 2-0 in a cup match.

Arsenal in the 2022/2023 season has quickly transformed from a disappointment that couldn't make it to the top four under various managers for years into the country's vice-champion. Yes, there is a caveat about how they effectively conceded in the title race. But it's clear that they want to return successfully to the main European competition and maintain their positions domestically. So far, the start has been good, albeit with some reservations. They won the FA Community Shield, even though it was against an unmotivated opponent, and secured a 4-0 victory against PSV in the first round of the Champions League. There have been a few hiccups in the Premier League, like the 2-2 draw against Tottenham, which was only the second draw in this league. They also managed to progress in the cup against Brentford, although it was a close call.
The Red and Whites won 6 out of 7 head-to-head matches, with only one draw. The strengths here are very uneven. Bet on the away team from London with a -1 goal handicap.
Prediction for the match: Arsenal to win with -1.0 handicap.
