On Saturday afternoon (31/08/24), Bournemouth travel up north to take on Everton in what is a must-win game for the Toffees. Below, we've put together a few Bet Builder tips for the clash at Goodison Park.
Over 2.5 goals has been a common feature of recent meetings between these two sides, with six of the last seven head-to-head meetings between the two teams having seen over 2.5 goals scored. Additionally, all of Everton's last three and three of Bournemouth's last five outings have seen at least three goals scored.
Bournemouth are rarely shy in front of goal when they face off against Everton, with the Cherries having scored three or more goals in four of their last seven meetings with the Toffees, and two or more goals in five of those seven.
Antoine Semenyo was Bournemouth's second-most potent attacker last season, with the Ghanian registering 10 goal contributions in the league. He looks ready to improve on that total this season, having recorded one goal and one assist in his opening two games of this campaign.
Everton more than saw their fair share of bookings last season, with the Toffees collecting 82 cards in 38 games, an average of 2.15 cards per game. So far this season, the Toffees have picked up 30 booking points in two games.
Bournemouth have been by far the more dominant team in the recent head-to-head encounters between the two sides, with the Cherries winning five of the last seven clashes. Everton have also had a very tough time in the opening two games of the season, losing both games while conceding seven and scoring none.
Marcos Senesi was booked 13 times last season in the Premier League as a consequence of recording just under two fouls per game. This season, Senesi was booked in his first game of the campaign.
Bournemouth have been awarded 14 corners in their first two games this season, while Everton, despite being hammered in both games, still managed to accumulate an average of three corners per game in their opening two encounters of the season.
