Bournemouth FORM
Arsenal FORM
Key Factors
Bournemouth’s defensive fragility, conceding 2.4 goals on average over their current 10-match winless run, will be exploited by an Arsenal side that has averaged over two goals per game during their festive winning streak.
The absence of core Bournemouth midfielders like Tyler Adams and Ryan Christie, coupled with doubts over Lewis Cook, will surrender central control to Arsenal's Mikel Merino and Martin Ødegaard, allowing the Gunners to dictate the tempo and create high-volume chances.
While Antoine Semenyo remains a significant goal threat for the hosts, Arsenal's superior squad depth and league-leading second-half performance record (11 wins) will likely see them overwhelm a fatigued Bournemouth defense in the final 30 minutes.
Injuries & Absentees
Arsenal are definitely without defenders Riccardo Calafiori and Cristhian Mosquera, while key midfielder Declan Rice is a major doubt with knee inflammation. Bournemouth are missing Tyler Adams, Ryan Christie, and Ben Gannon-Doak, with Lewis Cook facing a late fitness test.
