One of the most important matches of the 37th Premier League week will take place at the Vitality Stadium, where AFC Bournemouth will host Manchester City.

The last time Bournemouth lost a match was back on January 3, 2026, when they were beaten 3:2 by Arsenal. On top of that, the club won both of their previous league games, defeating Crystal Palace 3:0 and Fulham 1:0.

City continue their title race, sitting two points behind Arsenal, so they are not considering any result other than victory. Manchester City’s previous game came against Crystal Palace, and Pep Guardiola’s side had no problems there, comfortably winning 3:0.

Prediction for the Bournemouth vs Manchester City

Manchester City face a difficult challenge — ending Bournemouth’s unbeaten run away from home. Still, Guardiola’s squad has no other option because dropping points could end their hopes of winning the Premier League title.

Despite Bournemouth’s impressive form, I believe Manchester City will achieve the result they need, so the recommended bet is a Manchester City victory.
