Bournemouth vs Newcastle: Premier League Prediction Match Details
AFC Bournemouth will host Newcastle United in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon at the Vitality Stadium for matchday 2 of the 2023–24 season.
Bournemouth Preview & Form
AFC Bournemouth came from a goal behind to salvage a dramatic 1-1 draw against Nottingham Forest in their opening Premier League games last weekend, thanks to a wonderful late strike by Antonie Semenyo in the second half. The Cherries have now endured only one defeat in their last five games, including preseason games.
The head coach, Andoni Iraola, will be hoping that his team can continue their brilliant home performances in the last stage of the 2023–24 season when playing at home. The Cherries had a great run of six unbeaten home matches towards the end of the 2023–24 season, but they suffered a 2-1 defeat in their last Premier League home game against Brentford.
Newcastle Preview & Form
Newcastle United started their first Premier League campaign with the aim of making a comeback in European competitions. They clinched a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Southampton, even after Fabian Schar received a controversial red card early in the first half. Eddie Howe will be pleased with his team’s strong defensive performance in last weekend’s win, which was secured by Joelinton’s late first-half goal.
The Magpies had a brilliant run of form during their preseason games, as they won four of their preseason games and suffered only one defeat. They defeated Hull City 2-0 and Urawa Reds 4-1, but lost 2-0 to Yokohama F. Marinos. In their final two warm-up matches, the Magpies continued their great form by defeating Girona 4-0 and Brest 1-0.
