AFC Bournemouth vs Manchester City Preview

City to Edge Past Bournemouth in FA Cup Showdown

Manchester City travel to the south coast to face AFC Bournemouth in what promises to be a competitive FA Cup quarter-final. With City only fighting for the FA Cup this season, Pep Guardiola’s men will be keen to advance, but Bournemouth could prove tricky opponents.

Bournemouth’s home form has faltered, with four consecutive winless games at the Vitality Stadium. However, they did beat City 2-1 at home earlier in the season, which will give them confidence. Meanwhile, City have scored 13 goals in their three FA Cup matches this season, but their away form has been inconsistent, keeping just three clean sheets in their last 15 away matches.

Prediction 1: Manchester City to win (1/2)
Despite Bournemouth’s impressive home victory earlier in the season, City’s superior squad depth and attacking firepower make them favourites. Their inconsistency on the road is concerning, but given Bournemouth’s recent struggles at home, City could edge this one. Bet now with this offer.

Prediction 2: Both teams to score (10/11)
Bournemouth have found the net in their last five home matches, while City have shown vulnerability at the back, conceding in key away games against PSG, Arsenal, and Real Madrid. This makes both teams to score a strong value bet. Claim your bet here.

Prediction 3: Erling Haaland to score first (4/1)
Haaland remains City’s most potent attacking weapon, and with Bournemouth’s defence struggling, the Norwegian striker could open the scoring early. He has been prolific in the FA Cup, and this is a match where he can shine again. Place your first scorer bet here.
