Key Facts and Stats Ahead of Arsenal vs Bournemouth Clash
Arsenal will be looking to continue their dominant home record against Bournemouth when the two teams meet at the Emirates Stadium this weekend. The Gunners have won all six of their previous Premier League matches against the Cherries on home turf, maintaining a perfect record against them.
In fact, Arsenal have only played more home games against Stoke City while still boasting a 100% win rate. Bournemouth, on the other hand, have struggled against Arsenal, picking up just five points in 13 league matches against them and never managing to keep a clean sheet.
Despite their historical dominance over Bournemouth, Arsenal will be wary of their opponents’ recent form. The Cherries have picked up an impressive 45 points in their last 26 matches, with only the current top four sides accumulating more points in that time frame.
Arsenal, however, have been in fine form themselves, winning 13 of their 15 league games so far in 2024. They have scored a league-high 85 goals this season, with star players like Kai Havertz and Bukayo Saka leading the charge.
Havertz, in particular, has been in scintillating form, with 13 goal involvements in his last 11 league games. Saka, on the other hand, has contributed 15 goals and nine assists this season, putting him in contention to join an elite group of Arsenal players to achieve double figures in both goals and assists in consecutive Premier League campaigns.
With both teams in good form, the stage is set for an exciting clash at the Emirates Stadium. Arsenal will be looking to maintain their perfect record against Bournemouth, while the Cherries will be hoping to cause an upset and continue their impressive run of form.
