Bournemouth started off well this season, but have not been able to do well lately, which puts the team down at 8th spot in the standings with 5 wins and 3 losses in 12 matches. This season, the team has scored 19 goals, which puts their goal-per-match rate at 1.58, and they have also made 118 shots out of which 49 shots remained on target inside the box. Bournemouth has also scored two out of three penalties and a free kick out of nine, which puts their XG rate at 17.42 after 12 games. The team has not done well on its defence lately, as they have conceded 20 goals, which puts their goals conceded per match rate at 1.67; still, they have made 107 interceptions and 34 blocks this season.
Their forward unit has players such as Evanilson, with a goal and 133 passes in 10 appearances, and Junior Kroupi, with 4 goals and 88 passes in 9 appearances. Moving to the middle, Bournemouth will be bringing some depth with the help of players such as Marcus Tavernier, with 3 goals and an assist in 12 appearances, David Brooks, with an assist and 229 passes in 11 appearances, Alex Scott, with a goal and 392 passes in 12 appearances, Lewis Cook, with 153 passes and 6 tackles in 6 appearances, and Tyler Adams, with a goal and an assist in 12 appearances. The team will be needing some improvements on the defence, where they have players like Adrien Truffert, with an assist and 24 tackles in 12 appearances, Marcos Senesi, with 3 assists and 19 tackles, and Bafodé Diakité, with 11 tackles and 8 interceptions in 9 appearances. Djordje Petrovic will be their primary goalkeeper for the next game, as he has made 4 clean sheets and 35 saves in 12 appearances.
Bournemouth will be entering the next game with a formidable line-up, which is capable enough to provide them with a strong win over Sunderland. Over their last five games this season, the team has scored 8 but conceded 12 goals, which shows that although their attacking side has done well, the defence has not converted those opportunities to wins. Along with that, only one of their last five games this season have ended in a clean sheet, which might allow Sunderland to get a turnaround in the next game. It is unlikely that Bournemouth will win the next game against Sunderland with a clean sheet.
On the other hand, Sunderland has shown similar performances to Bournemouth this season, as they hold 7th spot in the standings with 5 wins and 3 losses in 12 matches. In its last five games this season, the team has scored 7 and conceded just 5 goals, which has helped them to maintain a winning momentum. This season the team has scored 14 goals, which puts their goal-per-match rate at 1.17, and they have also made 64 shots out of which 42 shots remained on target inside the box. Along with that, Sunderland has scored a penalty, as their XG rate stands at 10.62 after 12 games. The team has done well on the defensive side, conceding just 11 goals, which puts their goals conceded per match rate at 0.92; and the team has still secured 92 interceptions with 47 blocks this season.
Their forward unit has players such as Wilson Isidor, with 4 goals and 66 passes in 12 appearances, and Bertrand Traoré, with 107 passes and 8 tackles in 7 appearances. The team also brings some in-form players to the middle, which includes stars such as Noah Sadiki, with 403 passes and 17 tackles in 12 appearances, Granit Xhaka, with a goal and 3 assists, and Enzo Le Fée, with a goal and an assist in 11 appearances. Sunderland brings the best of its players on the defensive side, which has stars like Trai Hume, with an assist and 21 tackles in 12 appearances, Nordi Mukiele, with a goal and an assist in 10 appearances, Dan Ballard, with 2 goals and 9 tackles, Lutsharel Geertruida, with 11 tackles and 3 interceptions in 9 appearances, and Reinildo Mandava, with 18 tackles and 11 interceptions. Robin Roefs will be their primary goalkeeper for the next game, as he has made 4 clean sheets and 43 saves in 12 appearances.
Tyler Adams, David Brooks, Álex Jiménez, and Marcos Senesi from Bournemouth, and Noah Sadiki and Granit Xhaka from Sunderland stand just one yellow card away from a one-match suspension. Bournemouth has its key players at risk of suspension, which might affect their playtime in the next game. It can also be predicted that Bournemouth will get at least two yellow cards in the next game against Sunderland.
