Bournemouth vs Tottenham Team News
Bournemouth will be without Gannon-Doak, Adams, and Milosavljevic, all sidelined with injuries. Furthermore, Antoine Semenyo could miss the game with his move to Manchester City moving closer. Junior Kroupi is in with a chance of being rewarded for his performance off the bench against Arsenal with a start.
Tottenham will miss Bissouma, Kulusevski, Maddison, and Udogie due to injury, while Solanke and Kudus are doubtful. P. M. Sarr is unavailable due to international duty. Xavi Simons returns from a three-game ban and should come back into the team. Djed Spence is likely to start at left-back after he was rested against Sunderland but Mohammed Kudus is doubtful after hobbling. Kudus' potential absence could give more chances to the likes of Mathys Tel and Wilson Odobert.

Bournemouth vs Tottenham Match Prediction
Bournemouth's poor form persists, with defensive frailties exposed against through balls and set pieces. Tottenham, hampered by injuries, excel in wide attacks and clinical finishing but struggle with offside traps and aerial battles. Given Bournemouth's home record and Tottenham's away struggles, a draw looks probable. Stats point to a card-heavy game, with Bournemouth likely scoring through individual brilliance.
Prediction: Bournemouth 1-1 Tottenham

Over 3.5 Total Goals
Bournemouth's matches have frequently delivered high-scoring thrillers, with recent examples like 4-4 vs Manchester United, 3-2 vs leaders Arsenal, and 2-2 vs Chelsea all smashing this line. Given both sides' attacking intent and defensive lapses, expect goals to flow again today.
Cristian Romero Over 0.5 Shots
Romero stands out as Tottenham's premier aerial danger from set pieces, regularly bombing forward to poach crucial headers. He's cleared 0.5 shots in 7 of Spurs' last 10 games, making this a reliable pick against Bournemouth's shaky defence.
Richarlison Over 0.5 Shots on Target
Richarlison is in consistent shooting form, hitting the target in his last 4 outings while averaging 1.7 shots and 0.7 on target per game. Bournemouth's porous backline leaves plenty of space for the Brazilian to exploit and test the keeper.
Over 3.5 Total Cards
Spurs games have gone over 4.5 cards in 5 of their last 7, while Bournemouth average 2.4 yellows per match this season (including 6 across their last 3). With Tottenham's aggressive defenders clashing against Bournemouth's frustrations, referees will have their work cut out.
