Bouremouth are set to play hosts to Newcastle United this weekend in the Premier League's late kick off on Saturday with the Magpies looking to bounce back into the top three after Manchester United knocked them back down into fourth.
Eddie Howe's men have still only lost once in the Premier League this season and no side has lost fewer games all season long. However, their excellent defensive record of just 12 goals let in is combined with their 11 draws this season already that pushes them way behind in the title race.
Howe's side have drawn with West Ham United at home and Crystal Palace away from St. James' Park in the past two games. In between this, the club have edged past Southampton over two legs in the EFL Cup semi-finals to set up a mouthwatering tie with Manchester United in a few weeks. The Magpies do have big games like a visit of Liverpool to worry about before then.
Bournemouth head into this one all the way up at 6/1 - this is the highest they have been at home against Newcastle in their history of Premier League battles. The Magpies sit at 1/2, while they are also priced at 4/9 to win on the 2up full time result market - if your team takes a two-goal lead at any stage before Full Time, they'll immediately settle your bet as a winner.
Given the excellent defensive record of Newcastle, it could end up being a low-scoring affair. Bournemouth to win 1-0, 2-0 or 2-1 is at 7/1 if you fancy an upset, while Bournemouth to win 3-0, 3-1 or 3-2 is all the way up at 28/1. However, Newcastle to win 1-0, 2-0 or 2-1 is at 6/4, which makes sense given their run to fourth in the table that has seen this result come in more than most.
Newcastle to win 3-0, 3-1 or 3-2 is also at 9/2. Picking Newcastle's goalscorer is also a tough one this season with so many getting in on the act and no real consistency in the attacking players. Alexander Isak is at 13/8 to score and win, while Callum Wilson sits at 7/4. Anthony Gordon could get his first start for his new club here and he is at 11/4 to score and win, while Miguel Almiron is at 9/4 and Allan Saint-Maximin at 10/3.
