Bournemouth vs Nottingham Prediction & Betting Tips (4 February)

Well on course to avoid a decline this season, Bournemouth is currently 12th in the Premier League and is 8 points ahead of the first relegation group. Authors of a very difficult start to the championship, the Cherries then showed a clear recovery in form which allowed them to move away from the red zone. However, they have not won in the last 3 days. Bournemouth lost against big names Tottenham 3-1 and Liverpool 0-4 before taking a point at West Ham this week 1-1. Last weekend, Andoni Iraola's men easily dominated Swansea in the FA Cup 5-0.

16th in the Premier League with 2 small points ahead of the relegation zone, Nottingham Forest are in great danger this season. After a series of poor results, Morgan Gibbs-White's teammates closed the year 2023 very well with unexpected successes against Newcastle 1-3 and Manchester United 2-1. However, they have since fallen back into their bad ways, losing to Brentford 3-2 and Arsenal this week 1-2. Held to a 0-0 draw at Bristol City last weekend, Nottingham Forest will replay, this time at home, their round of 16 FA Cup final on Wednesday.

Bournemouth's squad is weakened by the withdrawals of potentially starting defenders Aarons and Hill, goalkeeper No. 2 Randolph and long-term absentees Adams and Fredericks. The good news comes from the return of replacement winger Ouattara, who was eliminated from the CAN with Burkina Faso. In the offensive domain, the Cherries are carried by striker Solanke (13 goals in PL).

He stood out again this week by shaking the nets. During the winter transfer window, replacements Traoré (Naples), Marcondes (Hibernian), Brooks (Southampton), Moore (Ipswich) and Rothwell (Southampton) left the club. On the other hand, winger Faivre returned from his loan from Lorient while Turkish striker Enes Unal arrived from Villarreal.
