Arsenal – Bournemouth Preview
Arsenal hosts Bournemouth at the Emirates in a game from the 35th round of the English Premier League. It’d be a good idea to stay with us and our football tips today. Let’s get to work!
For Arsenal this match probably don’t mean much. The Gunners already lost the title race with Liverpool, and they have a crucial Champions League 1/2-finals game against PSG just a few days after. It means that Mikel Arteta can rest his entire starting team against the Cherries.
In other words, don’t be surprised to see in the line-up players like White, Zinchenko, Tierney, Nwaneri, Henry-Francis and Setford. Arsenal’s entire attention right now is moved towards Paris and the decisive visit to Parc des Princes.
During the week Arsenal faced PSG in the first 1/2-finals clash at the Emirates, but conceded a 0-1 defeat. Now it’s up to Arteta to decide how to keep his team fresh – not just physically, but mentally as well.
Bournemouth are ready to say goodbye to another decent season. Their worsened form made them fall down to 10th place in the standings, but a Top 10 position is still very good for the Cherries. Andoni Iraola’s team could eventually move to Top 8 if they beat Arsenal at the Emirates.
Last weekend Iraola’s team shared the points with Manchester United at home – 1-1. They had the lead until the 96th minute, when the Cherries conceded an equalising goal. Before that Antoine Semenyo opened the score for Bournemouth.
Justin Kluivert remains the Cherries’ top scorer this season with 12 goals scored in the league.
That’s the football tips today for the Premier League clash between Arsenal and Bournemouth at the Emirates. You can be sure that the Gunners won’t play their best team in this match – it won’t make sense to do so. Let’s see how Bournemouth will take advantage of this.
