A mid-table scrap in the Premier League will reunite Gary O’Neill with his former side on Wednesday. Wolves and Bournemouth come into this clash separated by just a point, with both sides likely to have their sights set on a finish in the top half of the standings.
It has been a progressive campaign for both Wolves and Bournemouth this term, and both will still have their sights set on a top half finish in the Premier League standings. Wolves come into this round of matches in a slightly better position than their rivals, with a home win likely to be enough to see them finish the round in the top ten. However, they have suffered three defeats in their last five.
Bournemouth are just a point behind their rivals in the standings, but they will still have confidence of finishing the season in the top half. The Cherries have suffered two defeats across their last three matches, which came after winning back-to-back fixtures in the competition.
Wolves will be looking to make a slight bit of history this week, as they could complete a league double over a fourth rival. They have only achieved four or more Premier League doubles in three previous seasons, with their previous doubles this term being achieved against Everton, Chelsea, and Tottenham.
However, their midweek record would be a concern. Wolves have suffered defeats in four of their last eleven matches played on a Wednesday, and they have recorded just two wins over that period. Meanwhile, the Cherries have recorded victories in five of their last six midweek matches in the Premier League.
Wolves have a creditable record in this fixture after losing just once in their last seven Premier League clashes with Bournemouth. However, the only win for the Cherries was picked up in this exact fixture last term. Meanwhile, Bournemouth have won three of their last six away league matches against their rivals, and they are chasing successive wins at Molineux for the first time in their history.
The injuries are beginning to catch up with Wolves at this stage of the season, and that could leave them vulnerable this weekend. Therefore, we will be siding with the Cherries to pick up maximum points to maintain their excellent record in midweek matches in the Premier League.
