Bournemouth hosts Burnley in round 18 of the English Premier League. The match will be played on Saturday, December 21st at Vitality Stadium (Bournemouth)
Bournemouth broke its 5-match losing streak in the last round, having beaten eminent Chelsea in London. But in general, the Cherries takes 14th place in the standings with 19 points scored after 17 rounds. They don’t think about prizes, but they have a 4-point gap from the relegation zone. The advantage is shaky, and it should not be lost at least. The victory over Chelsea will surely give more confidence, but the Cherries need to score so that to earn points. Bournemouth is not the best in this aspect, but as for the 14th team, statistics are not bad - 19 goals scored.

Burnley has two points more than the upcoming opponent has and is ahead of it by two lines in the standings. Like Bournemouth, the Clarets also broke their 3-match losing streak with a victory in the last round. The opponent was not so tough and eminent (just Newcastle), but the points earned are not less important than that of Bournemouth.
Who will win in the upcoming match? I don’t know and I’m not going to guess. The home field gives the advantage to the Cherries. The victory over Chelsea in the last round is also inspiring. But do not forget about five defeats before this victory. However, the exchange of goals is quite real. The goal difference of the home team is 19-24. They scored in six out of eight home games. Only leading Liverpool and Norwich left the Vitality Stadium with a clean sheet. Burnley, in turn, has the goal difference of 22-29. It scored in six of eight away matches. Only Tottenham and Sheffield didn’t concede from the Clarets. Judging by the available data, the Cherries and Burnley are likely to exchange goals in the upcoming meeting.
Prediction for the match: Both teams to score - yes
