Bournemouth – the shape of the team and its analysis: the club managed to avoid a protracted decline
“The Cherries”, being under the leadership of Iraola in the current season, play in series, sometimes positive, sometimes vice versa. The Basque specialist took a long time to get used to English football, but his new players had a whirlwind stretch before Christmas after a bad start. And then little had been shown until the end of winter. The surge in March and early April (13 points in 5 rounds) was replaced by a couple of defeats, and then with a draw in the battle against Manchester United. Nevertheless, the team won in the minority on the field of Wolverhampton on Wednesday.
Brighton & Hove Albion – the shape of the team and its analysis: the performance is not particularly interesting for either the coach or the players
“The Seagulls” couldn’t come close to repeating the success of last year, with a record rise to 6th place in the Premier League. De Zerbi wants to “make hay while the sun is still shining” and achieve the most of that success by moving to the grandees, and he is publicly talking about it. It should not be surprising that the results of the previous rounds are not impressive in terms of the higher mentioned aim – everyone is just waiting for the holidays. Having drawn with Brentford and Burnley, the club lost to Liverpool and Arsenal, and lasted a quarter of an hour in the struggle with Manchester City.

Free prediction for the match Bournemouth vs Brighton & Hove Albion on April 28:
Iraola’s wards will play at the home arena against an opponent which has not had even three days to recover, and, that is the most important, which no longer wants anything except for the holidays to come as soon as possible. We bet on the hosts to win with “a 0 goal handicap” (odd: 1.68).
