Bournemouth vs Hull City: Preview and Prediction

Bournemouth vs Hull City
English Premier League.
Date: Saturday, 15th October, 2016,
Kick-off at 15:00 UK
Venue: Dean Court.

This is a fixture where each team can hurt the other and change places in the Premier League. Bournemouth is currently in 13th place on 8 points and even though they have lost 3 games this season manager Eddie Howe has steadied the ship. This is why the club have only lost 1 game in their past five.

At home Bournemouth have won 2 and lost 1 but they have won their last 2 games by the same score line of 1-0 when they overcame West Bromwich Albion and Everton respectively.
Hull City got off to a superb start in the league but has faded quite bad. Manager Mike Phelan will have a job to do not to see his side slip into the relegation zone. They are in 15th place and just three points from safety.

The problem for the away side is their dire form of late which includes 3 straight losses and four defeats in their last five games. They have not won for over a month. Away from home they have an average 4 points from 9.

Bournemouth vs Hull City: Prediction

Bournemouth will start as the favourites but they have a much better side than they may initially think on their hands. Hull are going through a bad moment but the international break has come at a good time for the Tigers who can use this to try and wipe the slate clean.

If Hull can find their early season form there is a chance they can take something from this game.
