Bournemouth v Sturm Graz prediction

Sturm Graz crestSturm GrazWDLWD

What to expect

We expect about 2.3 goals from Bournemouth and 0.5 from Sturm Graz, so Bournemouth come out ahead by a clear distance rather than a nose. Put together, that is around 2.9 goals in the game, which is an ordinary sort of total.

Bournemouth come into this on three straight draws. Recent results are only ever part of the story, but they are worth knowing before kick-off.

Our pick: Bournemouth to win. Bournemouth are the stronger side on the numbers (xG 2.3-0.5), and we make them about 78% to win. On this shape, taking them to come out on top looks the cleaner play than chasing a bigger price elsewhere.

We put the chance of that landing at about 76 out of 100. The price on offer is 1.32, which works out at about 76 out of 100. The two sit close together, so this is a lean rather than a standout price.

What the numbers say
Bournemouth have not won any of their last five.
Sturm Graz have won two of their last five.
