Bournemouth - Manchester City Match Preview

England Premier League will continue this weekend and newly promoted Bournemouth hosts champions Manchester City

Bournemouth is struggling this season in the Premier League. They have already changed the coach. In my opinion, they have the worst squad in the league with few high-quality players. Their attack is one of the worst in the league this season and that is a problem if a team plays in Premier League where each team has many top-class players. They focus on defense but against Manchester City it will be hard for them to get points in that way. In the first match this season against City they got trashed 4-0. They got a win in their last game and that is the only good sign.

Manchester City got only two draws in their last two matches. They are playing better recently but they have been unlucky as they allowed a goal to their opponents from their first shot on target in the last four matches. They are not at the level we used to see them in previous seasons but still, they are one of the best teams in the world. They have Haaland this season who is probably the best attacker and finisher in the world. He is the league's best scorer. For this game, they will get De Bruyne back after he missed the Champions League game against Leipzig. He is the main player in this team and he will be really valuable here for Guardiola.

Bournemouth will try to defend and hit with counterattacks but Manchester City is usually good against teams like Bournemouth. It will be a similar game as they had against Nottingham last week where they have been extremely unlucky as they conceded from the first shot on their goal. Manchester City lately is being dominant in the first half of the matches. Good examples are matches against Leipzig and Bournemouth. I believe this match will be similar and Manchester City will easily win it.
