Bournemouth seeking European football, unbeaten in 12 games.
Leeds in form, aiming to avoid relegation, eight points clear.
Both teams are scoring but defensively vulnerable; expect goals.

Bournemouth vs Leeds United

Bournemouth continue their push for a European finish as they host Leeds United in a midweek English Premier League fixture.

The hosts have looked sharp lately, while the visitors are also showing some good form in their quest to beat the drop. Both teams should be fired up for this one and could be set to offer up goals.

Bournemouth News

Andoni Iraola has announced his departure at the end of the season and appears to be pushing to leave Bournemouth with European football. The Cherries are currently eighth in the table, level on points with sixth-placed Chelsea, having gone unbeaten in their last 12 Premier League matches.

Bournemouth have been in good form lately and head into this clash with successive victories, having won 2-1 at Arsenal and Newcastle United in their last two matches. They are also unbeaten in their last six home matches across all competitions.

Bournemouth often look sharp in attack but are unconvincing at the back, scoring and conceding in seven of their last eight home matches. Their last three Premier League matches have produced over 2.5 goals.

Leeds United

Leeds United are also showing some good form lately and are unbeaten in their last six matches across all competitions. They are slowly easing away from danger and are now eight points above the relegation zone.

The Lilywhites eased to a 3-0 home victory over Wolves in their previous Premier League fixture. Daniel Farke's team have also gone unbeaten in nine of their last 10 away matches across all competitions.

Like the hosts, Leeds United often show attacking quality while also looking vulnerable at the back. They have scored and conceded in eight of their last nine away matches, while their last three fixtures have produced over 2.5 goals.

Head to Head

Leeds United have six wins while Bournemouth have been victorious just twice, with one draw in the last nine matches. Both teams battled to a 2-2 scoreline in the reverse fixture back in September.

Verdict

Bournemouth v Leeds

Bournemouth will be keen to maintain their recent good form and put on a show in front of the fans. Having taken the lead at some point in the last three matches against Leeds United, a similar pattern could be considered here.

Both teams have scored in their last three meetings, which have also produced over 2.5 goals. With another open contest expected in Wednesday's clash, a similar outcome could be on the cards.
