Tottenham vs Bournemouth: Premier League Prediction (30.08.2025)

On Saturday, August 30 at 16:00 CEST at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, Tottenham Hotspur will host Bournemouth in the third round of the 2025–2026 Premier League. The hosts won their first two matches without conceding a goal: 3–0 against Burnley at home and 2–0 away to Manchester City. The visitors, meanwhile, lost 2–4 to Liverpool in the first round but bounced back with a 1–0 victory over Wolverhampton.

Given these results, it is not surprising that bookmakers see Tottenham as the clear favorite in this clash. Odds: 1.72 for a Spurs win, 4.20 for a draw, and 4.60 for a Bournemouth win. Analysts also expect goals: over 2.5 goals is priced at 1.56, and both teams to score is at 1.56.

Tottenham

The heavy summer investments in Thomas Frank’s new squad are already paying off. In the UEFA Super Cup, Spurs came close to beating PSG. Their 3–0 thrashing of Burnley was expected, but the 2–0 clean-sheet victory away to Manchester City was a true statement.

In attack, Brazilian Richarlison looks sharp alongside João Palhinha. With Mohammed Kudus and Brennan Johnson driving down the wings, any defense will struggle. This Premier League season looks set to be more successful than the last for Spurs.

Bournemouth

Andoni Iraola’s team lost its defensive backbone this summer. Dean Huijsen moved to Real Madrid, while Illia Zabarnyi transferred to PSG. Their places were taken by 28-year-old Marcos Senesi and 24-year-old Bafodé Diakité. While they looked solid against Wolves’ forwards, they were powerless against Liverpool’s trio of Gakpo, Ekitike, and Salah.

On the other hand, Marcus Tavernier, Evanilson, Antoine Semenyo, and David Brooks form a lively attacking quartet – with at least one of them shining in each match.

Head-to-head statistics

Since 2022, the teams have met six times. Tottenham leads with 3 wins to Bournemouth’s 2. However, last season Bournemouth won at home 1–0 and managed a 2–2 draw away.

Prediction

Both sides look strong in attack. A good combined bet here is: both teams to score and over 2.5 goals at odds of 1.80.
