The Premier League Matchday 12 clash between Bournemouth and West Ham will take place on November 22 at Vitality Stadium. Bournemouth vs. West Ham: prediction and betting odds, statistics.
Bournemouth
The team had an unbeaten run of 8 matches in the Premier League, but they faced tough away fixtures in the last two rounds and suffered defeats. First, they lost to Manchester City (1-3), followed by a 0-4 thrashing by Aston Villa. In the current championship, Bournemouth has suffered three losses, all in away matches. The club has dropped to 9th place in the standings but is only one point behind the top four.
- At least 4 goals have been scored in 5 of the team's last 6 Premier League matches.
- Bournemouth has won 5 and drawn 1 of their last 6 home Premier League games.
- At least one of the opponents failed to score in 5 of their last 7 home league matches.
Predicted lineup for Bournemouth (4-2-3-1)
Djorde Petrovic – Adam Smith, Marcos Senesi, Adrien Truffert, Veljko Milosavljevic – Tyler Adams, Alex Scott – Marcus Tavernier, Antoine Semenyo, Justin Kluivert – Evanilson.
West Ham
The Londoners are slowly emerging from the crisis they found themselves in during the first quarter of the championship. They won their last two Premier League matches at home. First, they defeated Newcastle (3-1), followed by a 3-2 victory over Burnley. Although still in the relegation zone, they only trail the team above them on goal difference. Notably, West Ham has conceded 23 goals, two fewer than Wolverhampton, who have the worst defense in the league.
- Exactly two or three goals have been scored in 7 of West Ham's last 9 Premier League matches.
- Both teams scored in 5 of West Ham's last 7 league games.
- The club has not won in 8 of their last 11 away Premier League matches (2 draws and 6 losses).
Predicted lineup for West Ham (4-2-3-1)
Alphonse Areola – Max Kilman, Jean-Clair Todibo, Aaron Wan-Bissaka, El-Hadji Malik Diouf – Freddie Potts, Lucas Paqueta – Mateus Fernandes, Jarrod Bowen, Crysencio Summerville – Callum Wilson.
Midfielder Lucas Paqueta is out due to suspension. The participation of goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski, forward Niclas Füllkrug, and defender Konstantinos Mavropanos is in doubt. Midfielder Oliver Scarles will definitely miss the match.

Bournemouth vs. West Ham: Match Prediction
The managerial change at the London club is finally yielding results. Under Nuno Espírito Santo, the team has won twice in a row. However, these victories were at home, but the 6 goals scored in these matches speak volumes. I believe that even in an away game, West Ham will find the back of the net. It's worth noting that the Londoners have scored in 16 of their last 19 away Premier League matches.
Bournemouth is strong at home, having scored in 9 of their last 11 home league games. In the last two rounds, the club conceded 7 goals, indicating that not everything is smooth in the team's defense. Interestingly, the last four head-to-head Premier League encounters ended 1-1. Both teams have scored in 6 of the last 8 meetings at this stadium in the Premier League.
My prediction – Both teams to score – yes
