Arsenal will be back in Premier League action this weekend and will welcome Bournemouth on Saturday. With four matches left to conclude the campaign, Arsenal sit in second place, 17 points above their 10th-placed visitors. Below is our prediction for this match, which will be staged at the Emirates Stadium.
Though they were squeezed out of title contention, the Gunners’ season is still very much in play with a Champions League spot at stake. They will also hope to finish not lower than second. Bournemouth are also in with a chance of securing a European spot for next season.
The Cherries shocked their soon-to-be hosts in the reverse game, winning 2-0 at home to hand them their first loss of the season in the league. Bournemouth, however, aren’t the bookies' favorite to win again; Arsenal are. Before losing in the first meeting between them, Arsenal had gone on a nine-match unbeaten run against the Cherries.

Arsenal - Bournemouth: Form Analysis
Arsenal are coming off a disappointing loss at home in the Champions League to PSG. There is a big possibility that preparing for that second leg tie will weigh heavily in the team selection on Saturday.
The Spanish coach could tinker with his lineup and opt to give some of his starters a rest. Arsenal have struggled in recent outings, especially in the league, where they’ve won just one of their last four games.
They drew 2-2 with Crystal Palace last time out, with the result all but ending their title hopes. Arsenal are already assured of a place in Europe next season, but with 67 points, they have to win twice more to secure Champions League qualification.
Bournemouth are eying a first double against Arsenal.
Bournemouth are mathematically in with a chance at finishing among the top seven and thus qualifying for the Conference League. Andoni Iraola’s men, however, do not have their fate in their hands and will have to rely on other results to make this a reality.
The Cherries have amassed 50 points and are seven points off the top seven. They have won 13 matches and drawn a further 11. Bournemouth have been solid recently and haven’t lost in four games after previously losing three in a row. They drew 1-1 with Man United last time out.

Arsenal & Bournemouth Squad Analysis
Leandro Trossard has netted eight times for Arsenal in the league this season. With the Gunners in crisis as all their natural strikers are out, the Belgian is likely to be preferred to lead the line against Bournemouth as he did against PSG.
Mikel Arteta could ring changes, seeing Ethan Nwaneri given a starting berth on Saturday. The youngster could be crucial for the Gunners, who may opt not to risk Bukayo Saka, a man with three goals in six matches against Bournemouth.
Bournemouth’s Evanilson is suspended.
At Bournemouth, Justin Kluivert is having his best offensive output since joining the team back in 2023. He has netted a team-leading 12 league goals and was on target in the home win against Arsenal, slotting home a late penalty.
Antoine Semenyo is also another one to look out for here for the Cherries. With nine goals, the Ghanaian has recorded his best scoring league campaign. His latest goal came last week, against Manchester United.

Our Arsenal vs Bournemouth Prediction
Our prediction for Arsenal v Bournemouth is for both teams to score. Arsenal aren’t the solid defensive team they were when the season began. They have struggled in keeping clean sheets. With a few changes expected to be made to the squad this weekend, they are likely to once again see their rearguard breached.
This is very likely given they are coming up against a decent attacking side. They, however, are still one of the best attacking teams in the league and can run riot on any given day. With Bournemouth also possessing a porous defence, we are likely to see both teams get on the scoresheet.
Arsenal vs Bournemouth Alternative Predictions
Leandro Trossard to score
For our second prediction, we pick Leandro Trossard to be on the scoresheet. The Arsenal forward has netted eight of his 11 goals this season in the league. He has also been in a rich vein of form recently, scoring half of Arsenal’s last eight league goals. In the absence of recognized strikers, he has filled in well.
