A south coast clash is next on the agenda in the Premier League, as Bournemouth host Brighton at the Vitality Stadium. Neither side is in great form, but they are able to enjoy their fruits of their labour earlier in the campaign, as they sit well clear of the relegation picture and ready to enjoy a summer off ahead. This should be a very open game, with nothing other than south coast pride on the line and it is one that looks to be intriguing for many punters and EPL betting apps.

Bournemouth vs Brighton Analysis
This should be an excellent game down on the south coast, with both sides eager to clinch three points.
Bournemouth
A midweek win over former manager Gary O’Neill and his Wolves side was just another example of how far Bournemouth have come this season. The Cherries are now one of the toughest outfits in the league to beat, with plenty of attacking prowess too. They do tend to play with more freedom at home and in pursuit of a top half finish, Bournemouth will be looking to play on the front foot here.
Team news: Marcus Tavernier and Ryan Fredricks are set to miss this one for Bournemouth, with Milos Kerkez suspended.
Bournemouth Predicted Lineup:
Neto, Adam Smith, Chris Mepham, Marcos Senesi, Illia Zabarnyi, Ryan Christie, Alex Scott, Lewis Cook, Justin Kluivert, Antoine Semenyo & Dominic Solanke.
Brighton
Losing 4-0 to Manchester City can happen to anybody but the manner of Brighton’s mauling at the Champions in midweek will be cause for concern. Roberto de Zerbi’s side look low on confidence currently, especially in front of goal and they will be looking to rekindle some of their early season form here. The Seagulls are an excellent side, even if it isn’t quite clicking currently and they have the ability to turn it on in the blink of an eye.
Team news: Solly March, Even Ferguson, Kauro Mitoma, Tariq Lamptey, James Milner, Billy Gilmour and Pervis Estupinian are all missing here for Brighton.
Brighton Predicted Lineup:
Jason Steele, JP Van Hecke, Lewis Dunk, Carlos Baleba, Joel Veltman, Jakob Moder, Pascal Gross, Adam Lallana, Ansu Fati, Joao Pedro & Danny Welbeck.
Bournemouth vs Brighton Prediction
This will be a very open game at the Vitality Stadium, as two sides who are looking to finish the campaign as strongly as possible meet. Brighton have been lacking confidence of late, especially in front of goal but they know that one result could turn their fortunes around. That said, Bournemouth look to be finishing the season strongly and the Cherries could pick up a good home win here.
Prediction: Bournemouth to win the match – 13/10 (+130) – Rhino Bet.
Bournemouth vs Brighton – The Ultimate Bet
Bournemouth to win & BTTS – 13/5 (+260) – Fitzdares
Whilst there is nothing other than pride at stake here, both sides will be out to win and Bournemouth’s fire power could see them over the line.
