AFC Bournemouth Watford betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This is a game in which Bournemouth can put on the field an unexpected surprise to the opponent. The good results in the last home games have motivated the team and its supporters, and even facing a team from the top of table, the home team should create several difficulties. However, we think that this game may have a tendency to be open and with several chances of goals, so risking in favor of the '' Over 2.5 goals '' is of great value.

It is important to point out that the away team only conquered 2 victories in the last 10 games.
