Crystal Palace vs Bournemouth: Team Form and Analysis
While Oliver Glasner’s men had gleaned some brilliant results this season, their last two losses against Man City and Newcastle have dropped them to the 12th position on the table. With hardly a few fixtures left of the league, Crystal Palace really need to pull up their socks if they wish to stay in the European race, which seems quite challenging now. The Eagles will also need a strong defence and will have to adopt an intensive attacking style to win against their opponents.
Speaking of Bournemouth, there’s no denying that they have displayed flashes of brilliance throughout their campaign. But it has been accompanied by a few downfalls that have impacted their position. Hopefully, their recent win against Fulham has given the Cherries the boost they need to battle Crystal Palace. Standing on the 8th position, they are strong contenders for the race to Europe.
