- Competition: Premier League
- Date: 2nd December, 2025
- Kickoff: 19:30 UK / 20:30 CET
- Venue: Vitality Stadium
Tuesday’s clash at the Vitality Stadium pits AFC Bournemouth against an Everton side sitting just outside the top half as the calendar turns to December - a meeting that could be pivotal for both teams’ final push before the winter break.
Up until November, the hosts had been enjoying a fantastic league campaign - with just one defeat in nine Premier League fixtures - but in the last couple of weeks Bournemouth have faced some serious challenges and will now be searching for their first win in over a month. Everton, meanwhile, will be eager to erase the bad memories of their 4-1 defeat away at Newcastle.

Historically Bournemouth have had the edge in recent meetings: they have enjoyed a run of three consecutive wins against Everton over the past couple of seasons, while Everton have failed to record a single victory at the Vitality Stadium since 2015, going winless in their last eight visits.
Bournemouth team overview
Bournemouth arrive with mixed form. The squad has shown that it can both score and concede in quick succession, reflected by a combination of comfortable wins and a heavy 0-4 defeat to Aston Villa earlier in November. The Cherries have dipped significantly in recent weeks and are struggling to rediscover the momentum they carried through the first ten games of the Premier League season. They are winless in their last four league fixtures, suffering three defeats during this period - including a 3-1 loss to Manchester City and their most recent 3-2 defeat to Sunderland, despite going 2-0 up inside the opening 15 minutes. Nonetheless, Bournemouth’s home form remains impressive, as they are unbeaten in six league matches at the Vitality Stadium.

Everton team overview
Everton travel to the South Coast on the back of a disappointing 4-1 home defeat to Newcastle - a harsh comedown following their outstanding 1-0 victory at Old Trafford on Monday, achieved despite playing with ten men for more than an hour. Statistically, Everton have been compact and disciplined but occasionally lacking sharpness in the final third; Iliman Ndiaye leads their scoring charts, though goals have been fairly well distributed across the squad. Their away form has not been particularly strong, especially in the early stages of the season, but performances have improved recently, and they have avoided defeat in each of their last two Premier League trips.

Prediction
Tactically, this should be a tight, low-to-medium scoring contest. Bournemouth will press aggressively to force turnovers, while Everton will aim to absorb pressure and counter through Ndiaye and quick transitional play. Given Bournemouth’s strong home record but recent difficulty turning performances into wins, and Everton’s defensive inconsistencies, a both teams to score (BTTS) outcome appears highly likely.
Prediction: Both teams to score (BTTS).
Three reasons we expect BTTS
- BTTS have landed in two of the last three head-to-head meetings between Bournemouth and Everton.
- Everton have scored in four of their last five away fixtures in the Premier League.
- Bournemouth are yet to lose at the Vitality this season and have scored in five of their last six home matches.
