Game Preview
Bournemouth will aim to stretch their unbeaten run in the Premier League to an impressive seven matches when they welcome Southampton to the Vitality Stadium on Wednesday night. The Cherries played out a 2-2 draw with fellow newly promoted side Fulham at the weekend, while the Saints were pegged back in a 1-1 stalemate with West Ham United. The praises of stand-in Bournemouth manager Gary O’Neil continue to be sung after he led the Cherries to a sixth game in a row without defeat in the Premier League, as their battle with Fulham at Craven Cottage ended with the spoils shared in a four-goal battle.
Only one point separates Bournemouth from the top seven and a possible European place, although Brighton & Hove Albion do have a game in hand, and a club record could be equaled by the Cherries in Wednesday evening’s clash. Indeed, the hosts could match their longest-ever unbeaten run in the Premier League – also going seven on the trot without defeat in 2017-18 – and only leaders Arsenal have beaten Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium so far this season.
While Bournemouth continue to quell any early relegation fears, Southampton fans are growing concerned over the possibility of demotion for their side, who are now winless in five Premier League contests after being held to a 1-1 draw by West Ham. Romain Perraud deflected opener saw Southampton go into half time with a one-goal advantage, but West Ham huffed and puffed and were eventually rewarded with a peach of an equalizer, as Declan Rice curled home a delightful effort from the edge of the area.
Defensive failures have plagued Southampton on the road for several months now, and such frailties could only be exposed more without the bright Bella-Kotchap marshaling the backline. Bournemouth’s extra rest day will also work in their favor, and it’s safe to say that O’Neil’s side will look to keep their unbeaten run going.
