Bournemouth vs Everton head-to-head statistics

Bournemouth vs Everton preview
This match will be played on date at Vitality Stadium. Kick off will be at 15:00 GMT.
Was the festive period a success for the Cherries? Well, in the sense that they maintained their unbeaten run, yes. However, Andoni Iraola’s men have won just one of their last four, so it’s not as if they’ve been in flying form.
Their failure to get the better of Crystal Palace in front of a home crowd on Boxing Day probably won’t have pleased Bournemouth fans, though those in attendance on the road against Fulham would likely have been pleased with a share of spoils when Dango Outtara applied a deft finish to a rather smooth attacking move with just a minute to go.
All in all, it’s fair to say that things are going well for Saturday’s hosts, who are now unbeaten in seven Premier League games.
The visitors had also been working on a very pleasing unbeaten run, which was extended to four games at the Etihad on Boxing Day.
Unfortunately, Sean Dyche’s men couldn’t make it five games unbeaten, losing at home to Nottingham Forest just before the turn of the year. In typical fashion, the Toffees didn’t create too much, which is a problem if they’re not going to keep things tight at the back.
On a more positive note, the visitors have avoided defeat in each of their last two on the road, losing only two of their last seven away games in the league.
Bournemouth vs Everton betting tips
Just one player bet catches the eye here.
Jesper Lindstrom to Score or Assist
It’s been a bit of a stop-start season for Jesper Lindstrom in terms of playing time. At times, the Dane has been given the nod in one of the wide attacking positions, but he’s also been on the bench quite a bit.
However, having come on at half time last time out, looking about as lively as any Everton player, it wouldn’t be a surprise if he was reinstated as a starter here. If he does start, and if odds of 3/1 remain available, Lindstrom looks a decent bet to score or assist.
Sure, you’re probably thinking that Lindstrom can’t be a good bet because he hasn’t scored or assisted in the Premier League yet this season. He hasn’t, though he’s often looked lively in the final third, while his underlying numbers aren’t bad at all.
The man on loan from Serie A side Napoli averages a decent 0.37 expected goals and expected assisted goals per 90 minutes, making him, of those regularly involved, Everton’s second best performer in that sense.
Lindstrom is also Everton’s second most prolific player in terms of shots on target per 90 minutes, averaging 1.06. He also shoots, on average, 3.19 times per 90, which is far from poor.
Ahead of a game where not a great deal appeals, at least not from a value point of view, betting on the Danish winger to make a sizable contribution is the way to go.
