Pep Guardiola’s men have won an incredible sixteen out of seventeen league matches since August, smashing in an eye-watering fifty-two goals along the way. David Silva and Kevin De Bruyne have been their most outstanding players – the creative outlets have been in wonderful form, collecting sixteen assists between them already in 2017/18. Already the Sky Blues’ nine-point gap at the top of the table looks unassailable and they are certain to lift the EPL trophy next May.

The Cherries are having a real tough time of it heading into this week’s Manchester City vs Bournemouth betting tips. Eddie Howe’s side are without a win in five, and despite some decent performances, most notably their 0-1 loss at Old Trafford against Man Utd, the south coasters just haven’t been able to score the goals to match their impressive displays. They have scored just four times in their last five outings and they really need a lot more from attacking duo Joshua King and Callum Wilson.

Manchester City vs Bournemouth Prediction and Betting Advice

The home team have won the fixture under analysis in our Manchester City vs Bournemouth bets in 100% of the team’s last five meetings and six times out of seven overall. The Citizens put seventeen goals past the Cherries over those matches, averaging just under three goals per ninety minutes played.

Guariola’s attackers have been incredibly potent this term, averaging just over three goals per Premier League match so far having hit the net fifty-two times in seventeen contests. At the Etihad their goal per game average is even higher, standing at a huge 3.5 per match there. The Cherries have only won two of their nine away league matches in 2017/18, and they won’t be confident of taking anything from their game in Manchester.

It’s difficult to see how anyone can stop City at present, least of all a team who haven’t won in five games. With Leroy Sane, Raheem Sterling and Gabriel Jesus all set to feature again, it should be another big victory for the Sky Blue juggernaut. Coral’s outright Premier League football match odds are exceptionally priced, making them the perfect bookie to use with our first selection.

It’s hard not to be impressed with the Citizen’s phenomenal goal scoring power this season. Their ability to rack up the goals was certainly a huge influence over today’s Manchester City vs Bournemouth predictions and our second forecast also concerns the always lucrative goal markets.

In five of the home team’s last seven fixtures at the Etihad Stadium, they scored a goal in both halves. Their battles with Liverpool, Crystal Palace, Stoke, Burnley and Arsenal all saw a goal from the hosts in each forty-five. The Citizens plundered twenty-three goals in total in those five games alone.

Guardiola likes his players to get on top early, to dominate and to score as early as possible. The Cherries are generally quite resolute in defence, but on this occasion, they face a rampant home attack that have been steamrollering all before them. We uncovered some terrific odds at Sunbets for our second pick, making them our bookie of choice and a great service to use with the last entry in our English football betting predictions.
