Bournemouth will try to claim a major scalp in the Premier League round 8 when they take on vice-champions Arsenal on Saturday afternoon. The Cherries were having their ups and downs before the international break, losing to both Liverpool and Leicester on the road, while beating Southampton at home. As Bournemouth struggle in matches against top-table sides, home win should not be considered. Tyler Adams is the only injury concern in the home team. 

The Gunners, on the other hand, aim to build on back-to-back wins over Leicester City and Southampton. As Mikel Arteta can count on key players except for long-term absentee Martin Odegaard, we are tempted to bet on the title hopefuls. In their last meeting at Vitality Stadium Arsenal rolled over Bournemouth 4-0 and we predict that history is going to repeat itself. Germany striker Kai Havertz is widely expected to lead the line for the capital club despite missing Nations League games against Bosnia and Netherlands with a knee injury.

Score Prediction: Bournemouth 1-2 Arsenal
