Leeds United vs AFC Bournemouth

, KO: 15:00 , Elland Road
AFC Bournemouth

Leeds United have made a decent start to life back in the Premier League and will be looking to get more precious points on the board when they host AFC Bournemouth.

The three promoted teams were favourites for the drop before a ball was kicked but Leeds sit 12th after amassing seven points from their first five matches.

They claimed a 3-1 win away to Wolves in their last outing, with that victory leaving them four points above the drop zone and seven clear of the rock-bottom Molineux men.

Boss Daniel Farke will now be looking to build some more momentum but it won't be easy against a Bournemouth side who sit in the top four after an impressive start to the season.

The Cherries were unlucky to lose 4-2 at Anfield on day one and have gone unbeaten in the Premier League since then.

But they could only draw 0-0 at home to Newcastle on Sunday, with two bets landing for our man Greg, so Andoni Iraola will be looking to get back to winning ways in Leeds.

How the bookies view it: Leeds look too big at 2/1

Leeds have yet to lose at home this season so I'm surprised to see them as big as 2/1 for the win with BoyleSports. Bournemouth are 7/5 favourites and the draw pays 11/5.

Recent head to head: Cherries up against it

Leeds United have an excellent record in this fixture and have only lost twice to Bournemouth in their 15 meetings.

They last faced off in season 2022/23, with a thrilling 4-3 win for United at Elland Road followed by a 4-1 victory for the Cherries on the south coast.

Players to watch: Shots are Staching up

Anton Stach has taken 11 shots for Leeds this season and the midfielder was finally rewarded with a long-range stunner at Wolves. He's 7/1 for another goal here at BoyleSports and 6/5 with Bet365 to have an attempt on target.

Evanilson should lead the line again for Bournemouth and will be looking to add to a tally that stands at just one goal this season. The Brazilian is usually a threat and is 2/1 at BoyleSports for anytime scorer.

Probable line-ups

Bournemouth's squad is in healthy shape with only Eres Unal and Adam Smith out. Leeds United have more issues, with Lucas Perri, Daniel James, Wilfried Gnonto and Jayden Bogle all set to miss out.

Leeds United: Darlow, Justin, Gudmundsson, Struijk, Rodon, Ampadu, Longstaff, Stach, Calvert-Lewin, Aaronson, Okafor.

AFC Bournemouth: Petrovic, Truffert, Senesi, Hill, Milosavljevic, Brooks, Scott, Adams, Tavernier, Semenyo, Evanilson.

Anything else catch the eye?

Bournemouth's games are usually pretty entertaining but the goals have dried up of late, with four of their six games this season seeing under 2.5 strikes.

Leeds United's two home matches have also produced just a single goal so there could be some value in betting against BTTS at 11/10 with BoyleSports.

Bournemouth have picked up 17 cards this season while the tally stands at just six for Leeds so try backing the Cherries for most cards at 21/20 with BoyleSports.
