AFC Bournemouth and Aston Villa both head into this Premier League clash with European aspirations so it promises to be a cracker as they both chase three precious points.
Unai Emery's side are out to qualify for the Champions League for the second season running and are in a decent position as they trail fifth-placed Chelsea by three points with three games to go.
Last week's 1-0 win over Fulham, which saw two of my bets come up short by one goal and one card, got Villa back on track after back-to-back defeats in the league and FA Cup.
Banking maximum points from their final three games will probably be enough to push them into the top five but Bournemouth will be desperate for a win too as they bid to qualify for Europe for the first time.
They currently sit eighth and that might be enough to secure a continental adventure, depending on how results go in other competitions.
The Cherries claimed a brilliant 2-1 win away to Arsenal last time out, bringing up a BTTS bet for Slips Tips, so they won't fear a clash with Villa at home.
How the bookies view it: Cherries on top
This is a tricky one to call but the bookies reckon home advantage just gives Bournemouth the edge, with the Cherries 13/10 at BoyleSports. Aston Villa are 7/4 shots and the draw pays 5/2.
Recent head to head: Nothing in it
These sides have met just 10 times since 1988 and it has been honours even, with four wins apiece and two draws. One of those stalemates came earlier in the season at Villa Park as they played out a 1-1 draw.
Players to watch: Evan's above
Evanilson was sent off in Bournemouth's last home game against Manchester United but the club successfully appealed and he was free to face Arsenal last week. The Brazilian scored at the Emirates to take his tally for the season to 12 and he's a decent 7/4 at BoyleSports to add to that tally here.
I thought Ollie Watkins would become Aston Villa's record Premier League scorer against Fulham last time out but he missed the two decent chances that came his way. I'd imagine the striker will get another chance to make history in this game and he's 6/4 at BoyleSports to take that tally to 75.
Probable line-ups
Bournemouth are still without midfielder Ryan Christie, striker Eres Unal and winger Luis Sinisterra due to injury. Aston Villa are almost at full strength, with only Marcus Rashford set to miss out.
AFC Bournemouth: Kepa, Huijsen, Kerkez, Smith, Zabarnyi, Scott, Ouattara, Adams, Kluivert, Semeny, Evanilson.
Aston Villa: Martinez, Cash, Konsa, Digne, Torres, McGinn, Tielemans, Asensio, Onana, Rogers, Watkins.
Anything else catch the eye?
These teams are generally good value in the BTTS and that bet is even more appealing for this one as they both need a win. Sadly, it pays just 4/9 at BoyleSports and adding on over 2.5 goals only takes you to 4/5.
BTTS and no draw is better at 6/5 with the same firm while backing both teams to score in the first half takes you higher at 13/5.
There's very little between these teams if they're at their best so the half-time draw looks another decent option at 5/4.
The clash earlier in the season saw card and corners galore, with 13 yellows flashed and 16 flag kicks awarded. Backing over 11.5 corners pays 11/8 at BoyleSports while Bet365 price over 4.5 cards at 11/10.
