I did go against Tottenham a few days ago when they lost deservedly away at Brighton by 4-2. My preview was this,

and I do not expect any better performance from today either. With their individual upfront, especially Son, they can win any team any day, but the defense is so shaky that that they will struggle big time against teams who press them hard, and no ones does it better than Bournemouth where the coach Iraola has found the correct players to fit his system.

Bournemouth last 7 games are 6-1-0 with a 18-5 goal difference, why are they underdogs here? Let us take a look at their results with xG.

Last round they destroyed Nottingham at home, from 30 minutes onwards they were superior. Here is the timeline:

Before that match

They have been the better side in every single game except Villa away.

As discussed in the latest Tottenham preview I had doubts over their defense despite a few good results, and this is what happened at Brighton:

They were never a good match for the Brighton side who are not in top form, and there was not much worth mentioning of their performance until it was too late.

Both have long injury lists, but actually there is not much chance from the last round. At Tottenham Kulusevski is only guaranteed change to the starting lineup, at Bournemouth there are actually a few possibly returning players.

The odds are a big joke, Bournemouth will punish from any Tottenham weaknesses already in the first half. Is this another loss by 2 goals to Tottenham?

几天前我看过热刺的比赛，当时他们在客场4-2不敌布莱顿。我的预演是这样的，

https://expert.hongcai.163.com/index.html#/article/3105870

我也不指望今天会有更好的表现。凭借他们的个人优势，尤其是孙正义，他们可以在任何时候击败任何一支球队，但防守太不稳定了，他们在面对压力很大的球队时都会挣扎，没有人比伯恩茅斯做得更好，教练伊奥拉在那里找到了适合他的球员。

伯恩茅斯最近7场比赛是6胜1负，净胜球是18胜5负，为什么他们在这里处于劣势?让我们看看他们用xG的结果。

上一轮他们在主场击败了诺丁汉，从30分钟开始他们就处于优势。以下是时间表:

那场比赛之前

除了客场对阵维拉，他们每场比赛都表现得更好。

正如在热刺的最新预告中所讨论的那样，尽管他们取得了一些不错的成绩，我还是对他们的防守表示怀疑，这就是在布莱顿发生的事情:

对于状态不佳的布莱顿来说，他们从来都不是一场好比赛，他们的表现也没什么值得一提的，直到为时已晚。

两人都有很长的伤病名单，但实际上从上一轮开始就没有太大的机会了。在托特纳姆，库卢塞夫斯基只会被安排在首发阵容中，而在伯恩茅斯，实际上有一些球员可能会回归。

这是一个大笑话，伯恩茅斯将在上半场惩罚热刺的任何弱点。这又是输给热刺2球吗?
