Bournemouth wants some luck, they have to pass, there’s no other solution. The Everton is unpredictable, can be comfortable to the touch, then you see them opposite the Aston Villa and come to life 10 minutes from the end. You look and think, why do you have so many smart players and you seem to explode?
I think it’s going to be a fantastic match because Bournemouth has to kick it out. I just don’t see them doing that, I think it’s too late for them and they’re going to lose goals.
Why is Ake being asked?
CHARLIE PREDICTIONS: 3-2 (18/1 with Sky Bet)
