Bournemouth's scoring ability is much better than Everton's. They are scoring 1.62 goals per game. But their defense is unstable. Conceding 23 goals is a lot. Everton's scoring ability is at rock bottom. It is difficult to aim for the top ranks with 1.08 goals per game.

Bournemouth's Home Advantage

They have recorded 1 win, 2 draws, and 3 losses in the last 6 games overall. The record is not good, but they are scoring 1.67 goals per game. The problem is that they are conceding 2.5 goals.

But they are a completely different team at home:

• ●Last 3 games home: 2 wins, 1 draw (undefeated)
• ●Average per game: 2.33 goals scored / 1 goal conceded
• ●Possession: 60.67%

Their long-term home record is impressive:

• ●Recent 16 home league games: 81% undefeated (13 games)
• ●Recent 12 home games: 42% clean sheets (5 games)

They are really strong against Everton:

• ●Recent 10 home games: 7 wins, 2 draws, 1 loss
• ●Recent 5 games overall: 4 wins
• ●Recent 13 games: 38% won by 2 or more goals (5 games)

This is a team that is used to beating Everton at the Vitality Stadium.

Everton's Away Struggles

They have recorded 2 wins, 1 draw, and 3 losses in the last 6 league games. They are only scoring 0.83 goals per game. This is a really serious lack of scoring ability.

Their shooting stats are also low:

• ●Average shots per game: 8.67 shots (2.17 shots on target)

Their away record is worrying:

• ●Recent 12 away games: 50% losses (6 losses)
• ●Recent 10 games overall: 5 losses
• ●Recent 10 games: 40% lost by 2 or more goals (4 games)

They can't score away from home, and when they lose, they tend to lose big.

Recent 10 games at the Vitality Stadium:

• ●7 wins, 2 draws, 1 loss (based on Bournemouth)

Bournemouth dominates Everton at home. They have also recorded 4 wins in the recent 5 overall head-to-head matches. It's a really difficult away venue for Everton.

Bournemouth's 4-2-3-1

Manager Andoni Iraola plays attacking football. They dominate the game with 60.67% possession at home. Scott and Adams control the midfield, and Tavernier and Semenyo attack from the flanks.

Evanilson is in charge of finishing at the forefront. They boast a firepower of 2.33 goals per game at home.

They have injuries. Hill, Soler, Gannon-Doak, and Kluivert are out.

Everton's 4-2-3-1

Manager Sean Dyche prefers a defensive approach. Tarkowski and Keane lead the central defense, and Garner and Onana protect the midfield.

The problem is the attack. They are only scoring 0.83 goals per game. Barry is struggling at the forefront, but support is lacking. Ndiaye and Grealish need to create opportunities.

Branthwaite and Loe are out with injuries, and Gueye is suspended. There is a gap in the midfield.

1. Bournemouth's Home Attacking Power

They are scoring 2.33 goals per game at home. The performance of Evanilson and Tavernier is key. It doesn't seem difficult to penetrate the Everton defense.

2. Everton's Lack of Scoring Ability

They are only scoring 0.83 goals per game. It won't be easy to score against Bournemouth. Barry needs to show his finishing ability, but support is lacking.

3. Midfield Control Battle

Bournemouth's midfield of Scott and Adams is likely to dominate the game. Everton's Garner needs to stop this, but it will be more difficult without Gueye.

analysis Probability:

• ●Bournemouth Win: 46%
• ●Predicted Score: 2-1

The algorithm is predicting a Bournemouth victory. Home record, record against Everton, and home scoring ability all favor Bournemouth.

Bournemouth (4-2-3-1)

• ●GK: Neto
• ●DF: Smith, Zabarnyi, Senesi, Kelly
• ●MF: Scott, Cook
• ●AM: Tavernier, Semenyo, Brooks
• ●FW: Solanke

⚠️ Out: James Hill, Julio Soler, Ben Gannon-Doak, Justin Kluivert

Everton (4-2-3-1)

• ●GK: Pickford
• ●DF: Patterson, Tarkowski, Keane, Mykolenko
• ●MF: Garner, Onana
• ●AM: McNeil, Doucoure, Harrison
• ●FW: Calvert-Lewin

⚠️ Out: Jarrad Branthwaite, Dele (injured), Idrissa Gueye (suspended)

Bournemouth is favored. They have won 7 out of 10 games against Everton at home. Their recent home form is also good. Everton's scoring ability is at rock bottom away from home.

The predicted score is a 2-1 Bournemouth victory. Bournemouth will score 2 goals in the first half with the power of the home crowd and dominate the game. Everton will make up one goal in the second half, but the scenario is that Bournemouth will keep the victory.

Everton needs to revive their scoring ability to get points. But it is difficult for a team that only scores 0.83 goals per game to suddenly improve. The midfield has also weakened without Gueye.

Bournemouth can further solidify their mid-table position with this win. They will continue their good memories against Everton at the Vitality Stadium. Let's look forward to the performances of Evanilson and Tavernier.
