Bournemouth will bring the curtain down on their Premier League season with a home game against Leicester City at the Vitality Stadium on Sunday afternoon.
The Cherries have performed well this season but it does look like they have run out of steam heading down the final stretch.
In fact, Andoni Iraola’s side have won just two of their last 12 Premier League matches following their midweek defeat at Man City.
That being said, Bournemouth could still match their highest-ever finish of 9th if results go their way on the final weekend of the campaign.
As for Leicester, their inevitable relegation back to the English Championship was confirmed last month when losing 1-0 at home to Liverpool.
However, the Foxes have provided their fans with some much-needed cheer in recent weeks, with last Sunday’s 2-0 win over Ipswich extending their unbeaten run to three matches.
How the bookies view it: Cherries to take charge
Despite winning just one of their last seven Premier League home games, Bournemouth are short-priced 3/10 favourites on Boylesports.
Leicester’s most recent Premier League away game ended all square and the same outcome on Sunday can be backed at 4/1 on Boylesports, while a Foxes victory is as big as 7/1 with the same firm.
Head to head: History favours the hosts
Bournemouth can draw confidence from the fact that they have avoided defeat in each of their six Premier League home games with Leicester. That being said, the Foxes did claim one of their six Premier League wins this season in the reverse fixture at the King Power.
Players to watch: Evanilson to make his mark?
Evanilson has scored a quietly impressive 10 Premier League goals for Bournemouth this season, making the Brazilian forward an eye-catching option for an anytime strike on Sunday at even-money (1/1) on Boylesports.
Wout Faes has committed at least one foul in five of his last seven Premier League appearances for Leicester away from home. Thus, the 4/5 (Bet 365) about a repeat at the Vitality Stadium on Sunday represents good value.
Predicted line-ups
Bournemouth boss Iraola will be forced into making at least one change on Sunday after Lewis Cook received a straight red card against Man City on Tuesday night.
Jamie Vardy won’t feature for Leicester on Sunday after making his final appearance for the club against Ipswich last weekend.
Bournemouth: Kepa; Smith, Zabarnyi, Huijsen, Kerkez; Adams, Brooks; Tavernier, Kluivert, Semenyo; Evanilson
Leicester: Stolarczyk; Justin, Coady, Faes, Thomas; Ndidi, Soumare; McAteer, Ayew, El Khannouss; Daka
Anything else catch the eye?
The 4/5 on offer with Boylesports for both teams to score looks a touch too big on Sunday in what is essentially a dead-rubber.
Both teams have hit the back of the net in 23 of Bournemouth's 37 Premier League games this season.
As for Leicester, each team has obliged in 11 of their 18 top-flight road trips this term, most recently drawing 2-2 away from home against Nottingham Forest.
