PREMIER LEAGUE FRIDAY: The Striker previews Friday Night Football from the Premier League as Bournemouth host Fulham with a recommended BETDAQ bet.
BOURNEMOUTH V FULHAM
8pm We have Friday Night Football to enjoy from the Premier League this weekend on Betdaq Betting Exchange! Bournemouth host Fulham, with the home side having a chance to go second with a win here. I know it’s still early in the season, but Bournemouth fans must be buzzing to be hanging around the European spots at the moment. Last season, Bournemouth finished with the fifth best attacking figure in the Premier League so the signs are there that they might be able to push towards those European spots after finishing ninth last season.
Bournemouth have made a very positive start to this season too – eleven points from six games is better than Manchester City and Chelsea have done. They have an average xG created of 1.5 which is the seventh best attacking figure in the Premier League, and they actually haven’t converted all their chances either so they can improve. It’s no surprise that they come into the game as the favourites, if anything I was expecting them to be trading a little shorter when I clicked into the market.
Bournemouth are 1.94 with Fulham 4.4 and the draw is 3.75 at the time of writing. It’s hard to get away from Bournemouth at the odds here in my opinion; even in their only loss of the season they finished the game at Anfield with a lot of respect after battling back to 2-2 from 2-0 down. They had a cracker last weekend away to Leeds, getting the equaliser in injury time for a 2-2 draw. Fulham have been quite average at the start of the season too, and I’d have Bournemouth trading sub 1.9 here to be honest.
While Bournemouth are sitting in the top seven attacking figures, Fulham are sitting in the bottom five. They have struggled to create good quality chances with an average xG created of 1.2, and they are conceding more than they are creating. That’s only marginal however, so they have been pretty solid at the back. They have conceded is every away game though, and shipped three last weekend against Aston Villa who have really struggled to score goals at the start of the season! I feel we’re getting cracking value on Bournemouth at 1.94 though, and I’m happy to kick off the weekend with a confident three point bet.
The Striker Says:
Three points win Bournemouth to beat Fulham at 1.94 with BETDAQ BETTING EXCHANGE
