Bournemouth will be looking to maintain their recent good form as they host Luton Town in a Championship fixture on Saturday. The Cherries appear unstoppable at the moment and should have too much for the newly promoted side, who are still struggling to come to terms with the quality in the topflight.
Bournemouth have been in great form in recent weeks as they are unbeaten in their last five Premier League matches. They have claimed four wins in that run, easing themselves away from trouble and moving 10 points clear of the relegation zone.
The Cherries were particularly impressive last time out in the Premier League as they triumphed 3-0 at Manchester United. They were surprisingly untroubled for much of the encounter with goals from Dominic Solanke, Phillip Billing and Marcos Senesi getting the goals.
Having been on the road in their last two matches, Bournemouth are returning to the Vitality Stadium which has also seen some good work lately. Andoni Iraola’s men have claimed two wins and a draw from their last three matches, although they have failed to keep a single clean sheet in that run.
Luton Town are still trying to find their feet in the Premier League having claimed just two wins from 16 matches so far. They remain in the bottom three with the other newly promoted sides and are slowly being cut adrift, sitting fourth points from safety.
In terms of performances, Luton Town have shown some fight in recent wheels and will be keen to maintain that level on Saturday. They held on for long periods before losing 4-3 to Arsenal and also led against champions Man City before suffering a 2-1 defeat last time out.
Unfortunately both fixtures were at home and Luton will be on the road on Saturday. Rob Edwards' men have found things difficult on their recent travels, losing their last three Premier League away matches.
How the bookies view it
Bournemouth are considered overwhelming favourites among the bookies with a home win priced at 8/15 by Coral. An unlikely victory for Luton Town is valued at 11/2 by William Hill while a draw is set at odds 7/2 by bet365.
Head to head
Bournemouth have an 11-6 advantage with six draws from 23 previous matches against Luton Town. The Cherries claimed a 2-1 victory in a Championship fixture at the Vitality Stadium back in 2021.
Player to watch
Dominic Solanke is showing no signs of slowing down having scored eight Premier League goals this season. The striker was on target in Bournemouth's last win over Luton Town and is priced at 11/8 by bet365 to find the net on Saturday.
Elijah Adebayo has been in good form for Luton Town in recent weeks and will be the one tasked with providing the spark in attack. The striker has found the net in the last two matches and could be worth keeping an eye on to score anytime at 17/4 by Unibet.
Anything else catch the eye?
Bournemouth saw over 3.5 in their last home fixture and could be set for a repeat at 9/5 with Unibet, who is also offering 7/10 for over 2.5 goals. Both teams to score is valued at 4/5 by bet365.
Given the minimal odds for a straight Bournemouth victory, a win and over 2.5 goals offers more value at 5/4 with BoyleSports.
